PART I
Item 1. Business
(a)
General development of business
Man-AHL Diversified I L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the Partnership), was organized in September 1997 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and commenced trading operations on April 3, 1998, for the purpose of engaging in the speculative trading of physical commodities, futures and forward contracts and related instruments. The Partnership was formerly named AHL Diversified (USA) L.P., but was renamed in February 2002. The Partnership is a feeder fund in a master-feeder structure, whereby the Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in Man AHL-Diversified Trading Company L.P. (the Trading Company). AHL Partners LLP (the Trading Advisor), a United Kingdom limited liability partnership, is the Partnerships and the Trading Companys trading advisor. The Trading Advisor also serves as the Partnerships commodity pool operator. Man Investments (USA) Corp. (the General Partner), a Delaware corporation, is the Partnerships general partner. The Trading Advisor is an affiliate of the General Partner. Man Investments Limited, a United Kingdom private limited company, that is part of Man Group plc (Man Group), is the managing member of the Trading Advisor, and Man Investments Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation that is part of Man Group, is the sole shareholder of the General Partner.
On January 28, 2008, the Partnership filed a registration statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the Exchange Act). The registration statement, which was subsequently amended, became effective on or about March 28, 2008. The Partnership offers two classes of units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership (Units): Class A Units are generally offered; Class B Units are offered to employee benefit plans, IRAs and other retirement plans and accounts. The two Classes of Units are identical to each other except that Class B Units may be purchased, transferred, held and redeemed in a minimum amount of $10,000. On April 1, 2009, the Partnership added two new series of Units: Class A Series 2 Units (Class A-2) and Class B Series 2 Units (Class B-2). Except as described in section (c) below, Class A-2 and Class B-2 units are identical to Class A and B units, respectfully. Previously offered Class B-2 units are no longer offered by the Partnership, and units have been redeemed as of November 30, 2018.
Although the Partnership uses the term class to distinguish between certain interests in the Partnership, the Partnership does not believe that the differences between such interests are sufficient to make them separate classes under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, as all of the interests in the Partnership, regardless of class, are of substantially similar character and the holders of which enjoy substantially similar rights and privileges. The holders of interests in the Partnership (regardless of class) share pro rata in the Partnerships profits and losses, enjoying no preferences over one another during the life of the Partnership or upon dissolution and otherwise have identical rights under the Partnerships Limited Partnership Agreement, as amended or supplemented from time to time (the Limited Partnership Agreement). The only differences among the classes relate to fees and minimum investment.
The General Partner became the general partner of the Partnership as of April 1, 2005 when Man-AHL (USA) Corp., the Partnerships original general partner and trading advisor (Man-AHL), appointed it as such. In addition to the appointment of the General Partner, Man-AHL appointed Man-AHL (USA) Limited to serve as the trading advisor to the Partnership commencing as of April 1, 2005. Following the appointments of the General Partner as a general partner and Man-AHL (USA) Limited as the trading advisor, Man-AHL resigned as a general partner and trading advisor of the Partnership. The General Partner agreed to continue the Partnership without interruption or change. On June 1, 2014, the General Partner appointed the Trading Advisor as trading advisor of the Partnership, and Man-AHL (USA) Limited resigned as trading advisor. The Trading Advisor implements the same trading program and employs substantively the same personnel as did Man-AHL (USA) Limited. The General Partner controls and manages the business of the Partnership, but has otherwise delegated its investment management authority and commodity pool operator responsibilities with respect to the Partnership to the Trading Advisor. Purchasers of Units, as the Partnerships Limited Partners, have no right to participate in management or control of the Partnership. The offices of the Partnership, where its books and records are kept, are located at the office of the General Partner: 1345 Avenue of the Americas., Floor 21, New York, NY, 10105; telephone (212) 649-6600.

Narrative description of business
The Partnership engages in speculative trading, directly and indirectly, of physical commodities, futures contracts, spot and forward contracts, swaps and options on the foregoing, exchanges of futures for physical transactions and other investments on domestic and international exchanges and markets (including the interbank and over-the-counter (OTC) markets). The Partnerships indirect investments will be made through an investment in the Trading Company, pursuant to the trading strategies employed by the Trading Advisor. The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in the Trading Company.
The investment objective of the AHL Diversified Program is to deliver capital growth for commensurate levels of volatility over the medium term, independent of the movement of the stock and bond markets, through the speculative trading, directly and indirectly, of futures, options and forward contracts, swaps and other financial derivatives both on and off exchange. The AHL Diversified Program trades globally in several market sectors, including without limitation, currencies, bonds, energies, stock indices, interest rates, credit, metals, agricultural and volatility. In the future, the AHL Diversified Program may, to a limited extent, invest in stocks.
1
The AHL Diversified Program employs a systematic, statistically based investment strategy that is designed to identify and capitalize on trends and other inefficiencies in markets around the world. Trading signals are generated and executed via a finely tuned trading and implementation infrastructure. This process is quantitative, meaning that investment decisions are entirely driven by mathematical models based on quantitative analysis of historical relationships. It is underpinned by rigorous risk control, ongoing research, diversification and the constant quest for efficiency. Trading takes place around-the-clock and real-time price information is used to respond to price moves across a diverse range of global markets.
As well as emphasizing sector and market diversification, the AHL Diversified Program has been constructed to achieve diversification by combining various investment strategies. The AHL Diversified Program invests in a diversified portfolio of instruments which may include futures, options and forward contracts, swaps and other financial derivatives both on and off exchange. The AHL Diversified Program trades a broad range of markets and these markets may be accessed directly or indirectly and include, without limitation, stock indices, bonds, currencies, short-term interest rates, energies, credits, metals, agricultural and volatility.
Another important aspect of diversification is the fact that the models generate signals across different timeframes, ranging from intra-day to several months. In line with the principle of diversification, the approach to portfolio construction and asset allocation is premised on the importance of deploying investment capital across the full range of sectors and markets. Particular attention is paid to correlation of markets and sectors, expected returns, trading costs and market liquidity. Portfolios are regularly reviewed and, when necessary, adjusted to reflect changes in these factors. The Trading Advisor also has a systematic process for adjusting market risk exposure in real time to reflect changes in the volatility of individual markets.
The AHL Diversified Program uses margin and considerable leverage to reach model allocations.
The AHL Diversified Program is supported by a dedicated investment team, focused on the continual refinement of its trading models as well as the identification of new opportunities. These are gradually introduced into the AHL Diversified Program following extensive research and testing. The number and diversity of markets and strategies traded directly or indirectly by the AHL Diversified Program are therefore likely to continue to expand over time. It should also be noted that the implementation of the AHL Diversified Program by the Trading Company may differ from the way in which the AHL Diversified Program is implemented by other investment products managed by entities within the Man Group. These differences generally include, among other things, differences in the types of financial instruments, markets and asset classes traded which arise out of legal structuring, applicable law and other restrictions and/or considerations with respect to such investment products.
The Trading Advisor is paid a monthly management fee, payable in arrears, in an amount equal to 1/6th of 1% of the month-end Net Asset Value of the Partnership (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement) whether or not the Partnership is profitable (approximately 2% annually). The General Partner is paid a monthly general partner administrative fee in an amount equal to 1/12th of 1% of the month-end Net Asset Value of the Partnership whether or not the Partnership is profitable (approximately 1% annually) in respect to Class A-1 and Class B-1 units. The Trading Advisor may pay a portion of its management fee to the General Partner, and the General Partner may share a portion of its administrative fee with the Placement Agent (as defined below).
The Partnership will pay the Trading Advisor an incentive fee equal to 20% of the Net New Appreciation (as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement), if any, achieved by the Partnership as of the end of such calendar month. Trading Advisor will be entitled to retain all incentive fees previously paid to it even if subsequent losses are incurred. However, no subsequent incentive fees will be paid to the Trading Advisor until the Trading Advisor has again achieved Net New Appreciation for the Partnership. Net New Appreciation achieved during a calendar month means the excess, if any, of (a) the Net Asset Value of the Partnership as of the end of a calendar month (without reduction for any incentive fees accrued or paid to the Trading Advisor for the calendar month or for any redemptions or distributions effected during or as of the end of such calendar month and without increase for any additional capital contributions effected during or as of the end of such calendar month) over (b) the Net Asset Value of the Partnership as of the end of the most recent prior calendar month for which an incentive fee was accrued or paid to the Trading Advisor, with clause (b) reduced by the amount of the incentive fee accrued or paid for such prior calendar month and also reduced by any redemptions or distributions, and increased by any contributions, effected as of or subsequent to the end of such prior calendar month through the first day of the calendar month referred to in clause (a), above.
Man Investments Inc., an affiliate of the General Partner and Trading Advisor, is the lead placement agent for the Partnership (the Placement Agent). In connection with various services provided by the Placement Agent to the Partnership related to the offer and sale of interests in the Partnership and the ongoing servicing of its investors, the Partnership will pay the Placement Agent a servicing fee equal to, in respect to Class A-1 Units and Class B-1 Units, 1/12th of 1% of the month-end Net Asset Value of such Units (approximately 1% annually), and in respect of Class A-2 Units, 1/12th of 0.75% of the month-end Net Asset Value of such Units (approximately 0.75% annually). The Placement Agent may pass all or a portion of the servicing fee on to certain other selling and services agents. In addition, Class A-1 and Class B-1 Units purchased through a Selling Agent may be subject to the payment of an additional upfront selling commission of up to 3% of the purchase price of such Units.
The Partnerships organizational and initial offering fees and expenses were paid by the Partnership and have been completely amortized. The Partnership pays all of its expenses incurred in the ordinary course of its business. The Partnership also pays its extraordinary expenses, if any.
The Trading Company utilizes multiple brokers in the performance of its trading activities. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and Barclays Capital Inc. serve as the Trading Companys futures brokers; Natwest Markets plc, HSBC Bank PLC, Citibank, N.A. London Branch and BNP Paribas serve as the Trading Companys foreign exchange prime brokers; J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Barclays Capital Inc. act as the clearing members for centrally cleared credit default swap index transactions engaged in by the Trading Company; and the Trading Company conducts certain OTC interest rate swap trading through
2
J.P. Morgan Chase Bank N.A. (collectively, the Brokers). The Partnership is charged brokerage commissions at institutional rates, inclusive of all applicable National Futures Association (the NFA), exchange, clearing and other transaction fees. In connection with trading spot and forward contracts in the interbank foreign currency markets, the Partnership pays clearing fees of between $3.25 and $4.00 per transaction as well as dealer profits, which cannot be quantified, embedded in dealer quotes.
The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in the Trading Company. All of the Trading Companys assets will be held in cash or United States (U.S.) government securities in accounts in the name of the Trading Company at the Brokers or a bank, which currently is The Bank of New York Mellon, and in order to conduct futures trading activities, will be transferred, as necessary, into segregated accounts at the Brokers. Approximately 10% to 40% of the Trading Companys assets will be committed as margin for derivative positions. The Brokers may receive compensating balance treatment and excess interest income on the Partnerships assets, through the Trading Company, held at the Brokers in the form of cash.
The Trading Company engages in trading on non-U.S. exchanges and markets. In connection with trading on non-U.S. exchanges and markets, the brokers may either maintain Trading Company assets in accordance with the requirements of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the CFTC) Rule 30.7 or may redeposit Trading Company assets with non-U.S. banks and brokers which may not be subject to regulatory schemes comparable to those applicable to the Brokers.
Regulation
Under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the CEA), commodity exchanges and trading in futures and swaps (as defined in the CEA) are subject to regulation by the CFTC. The NFA, a registered futures association under the CEA, is the only non-exchange self-regulatory organization for futures industry professionals. The CFTC has delegated to the NFA responsibility for the registration of commodity trading advisors, commodity pool operators, futures commission merchants, swap dealers, introducing brokers and their respective associated persons and floor brokers and floor traders. The CEA requires commodity pool operators and commodity trading advisors, such as the General Partner and Trading Advisor, respectively, and commodity brokers, swap dealers, or futures commission merchants to be registered and to comply with various reporting and record keeping requirements. The CFTC may suspend a commodity pool operators or trading advisors registration if it finds that its trading practices tend to disrupt orderly market conditions or in certain other situations. In the event that the registration of the Trading Advisor as a commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor were terminated or suspended, the Trading Advisor would be unable to fulfill its obligations as the Partnerships commodity pool operator or implement the AHL Diversified Program on behalf of the Partnership. Should the Trading Advisors registrations be suspended, termination of the Partnership might result.
In addition to such registration requirements, the CFTC and certain commodity exchanges have established limits on the maximum net long or net short position which any person may hold or control in particular commodities. Most exchanges also limit the changes in futures contract prices that may occur during a single trading day.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Risk of Loss. Investing in the Partnership is speculative and involves substantial risks. You should not invest unless you can afford to lose your entire investment.
General. The transactions in which the Trading Advisor generally will engage on behalf of the Partnership involve significant risks. Growing competition may limit the Trading Advisors ability to take advantage of trading opportunities in rapidly changing markets. No assurance can be given that investors will realize a profit on their investment. Moreover, investors may lose all or some of their investment. Because of the nature of the trading activities, the results of the Partnerships operations may fluctuate from month to month and from period to period. Accordingly, investors should understand that the results of a particular period will not necessarily be indicative of results in future periods.
Markets Are Volatile and Difficult to Predict. Trading in futures is a speculative activity. Futures prices may be highly volatile. Market prices are difficult to predict and are influenced by many factors, including: changes in interest rates; governmental, agricultural, trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies; weather and climate conditions; changing supply and demand relationships; national and international political and economic events; and the changing philosophies and emotions of market participants. In addition, governments intervene in particular markets from time to time, both directly and by regulation, often with the intent to influence prices. The effects of government intervention may be particularly significant in the financial instrument and currency markets, and may cause such markets to move rapidly.
Trading Is Highly Leveraged. The low margin deposits normally required in futures trading permit an extremely high degree of leverage. A relatively small movement in the price of a futures contract may result in immediate and substantial loss or gain to a trader holding a position in such contract. For example, if at the time of purchase 10% of the price of a futures contract is deposited as margin, a 10% decrease in the price of the futures contract would, if the contract were then closed out, result in a total loss of the margin deposit before any deduction for brokerage commissions. Consequently, like other leveraged investments, a futures trade may result in losses in excess of the amount invested. Forward contracts involve similar leverage and also may require deposits of margin as collateral. Swaps and OTC derivative instruments are also highly leveraged transactions.
3
Markets May Be Illiquid. At times, it may not be possible for the Trading Advisor to obtain execution of a buy or sell order at the desired price or to liquidate an open position, either due to market conditions on exchanges or due to the operation of daily price fluctuation limits or circuit breakers. For example, most U.S. commodity exchanges limit fluctuations in most futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as daily price fluctuation limits or daily limits. During a single trading day, no trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. Futures contract prices occasionally have moved to the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading.
Even when futures prices have not moved to the daily limit, the Trading Advisor might not be able to obtain execution of trades at favorable prices if little trading in the contracts which the Trading Advisor wishes to trade is taking place. Also, an exchange or governmental authority may suspend or restrict trading on an exchange (or in particular futures traded on an exchange) or order the immediate settlement of a particular instrument.
Options trading may be restricted in the event that trading in the underlying instrument becomes restricted. Options trading also may be illiquid at times regardless of the condition of the market in the underlying instrument. In either event, it will be difficult for the Trading Advisor to realize gains or limit losses on option positions by offsetting them or to change positions in the market.
Trading in OTC derivative instruments is conducted with individual counterparties rather than on organized exchanges. There have been periods during which forward contract dealers have refused to quote prices for forward contracts or have quoted prices with an unusually wide spread between the bid and asked price.
Speculative Position Limits May Restrict Futures Trading. Speculative position limits prescribe the maximum net long or short futures contract and options positions which any person or group may hold or control in particular futures contracts. All futures contracts and options on futures contracts traded on commodity exchanges located in the United States, with the exception of contracts on certain major non-U.S. currencies, are subject to speculative position limits established either by the CFTC or the relevant exchange.
All trading accounts owned or managed by the Trading Advisor and its principals will be combined for the purposes of speculative position limits. Such limits could adversely affect the profitability of the Trading Company and, consequently, of the Partnership. For example, the Trading Advisor could be required to liquidate futures positions at an unfavorable time in order to comply with such limits. However, the Trading Advisor does not believe that existing speculative position limits will materially adversely affect its ability to manage the Trading Companys account.
Cash Flow. Futures contract gains and losses are marked-to-market daily for purposes of determining margin requirements. Option positions generally are not, although short option positions will require additional margin if the market moves against the position. Due to these differences in margin treatment between futures and options, there may be periods in which positions on both sides must be closed down prematurely due to short-term cash flow needs. If this were to occur during an adverse move in a spread or straddle relationship, a substantial loss could occur.
Decisions Based on Trends and Technical Analysis. The trading decisions of the Trading Advisor will be based in part on trading strategies which utilize mathematical analyses of technical factors relating to past market performance. The buy and sell signals generated by a technical, trend-following trading strategy are based upon a study of actual daily, weekly and monthly price fluctuations, volume variations and changes in open interest in the markets. The profitability of any technical, trend-following trading strategy depends upon the occurrence in the future of significant, sustained price moves in some of the markets traded. The Trading Company and, consequently, the Partnership may incur substantial trading losses:
during periods when markets are dominated by fundamental factors that are not reflected in the technical data analyzed by the program;
during prolonged periods without sustained moves in one or more of the markets traded; or
during whip-saw markets, in which potential price trends start to develop but reverse before actual trends are realized.
In the past there have been prolonged periods without sustained price moves in various markets. Presumably, such periods will recur. A series of volatile reverses in price trends may generate repeated entry and exit signals in trend-following systems, resulting in unprofitable transactions and increased brokerage commission expenses. Technical, trend-following trading systems are used by many other traders. At times, the use of such systems may:
result in traders attempting to initiate or liquidate substantial positions in a market at or about the same time;
alter historical trading patterns;
obscure developing price trends; or
affect the execution of trades.
4
Model and Data Risk. The Trading Advisor relies heavily on proprietary mathematical quantitative models (each a Model and collectively, Models) and data developed both by the Trading Advisor and those supplied by third parties (collectively, Data) rather than granting trade-by-trade discretion to the Trading Advisors investment professionals. In combination, Models and Data are used to construct investment decisions, to value both current and potential investments (including, without limitation, for trading purposes, and for the purposes of determining the Net Asset Value of the Partnership), to provide risk management insights and to assist in hedging the Partnerships positions and investments. Models and Data are known to have errors, omissions, imperfections and malfunctions (collectively, System Events).
The Trading Advisor seeks to reduce the incidence and impact of System Events, to the extent feasible, through a combination of internal testing, simulation, real-time monitoring and the use of independent safeguards in the overall portfolio management process, often in the software code itself. Despite such testing, monitoring and independent safeguards, System Events will result in, among other things, the execution of unanticipated trades, the failure to execute anticipated trades, delays in the execution of anticipated trades, the failure to properly allocate trades, the failure to properly gather and organize available data, the failure to take certain hedging or risk reducing actions and/or the taking of actions which increase certain risk(s)all of which may have materially adverse effects on the Partnership. System Events in third-party provided Data is generally entirely outside of the control of the Trading Advisor.
The research and modeling processes engaged in by the Trading Advisor on behalf of its managed funds is extremely complex and involves the use of financial, economic, econometric and statistical theories, research and modeling; the results of this investment approach must then be translated into computer code. Although the Trading Advisor seeks to hire individuals skilled in each of these functions and to provide appropriate levels of oversight and employ other mitigating measures and processes, the complexity of the individual tasks, the difficulty of integrating such tasks, and the limited ability to perform real world testing of the end product, even with simulations and similar methodologies, raise the chances that Model code may contain one or more coding errors, thus potentially resulting in a System Event and further, one or more of such coding errors could adversely affect the Partnerships investment performance.
The investment strategies of the Trading Advisor are highly reliant on the gathering, cleaning, culling and performing of analysis of large amounts of Data. Accordingly, Models rely heavily on appropriate Data inputs. However, it is impossible and impracticable to factor all relevant, available Data into forecasts, investment decisions and other parameters of the Models. The Trading Advisor will use its discretion to determine what Data to gather with respect to each investment strategy and what subset of that Data the Models take into account to produce forecasts which may have an impact on ultimate investment decisions. In addition, due to the automated nature of Data gathering, the volume and depth of Data available, the complexity and often manual nature of Data cleaning, and the fact that the substantial majority of Data comes from third-party sources, it is inevitable that not all desired and/or relevant Data will be available to, or processed by, the Trading Advisor at all times. Irrespective of the merit, value and/or strength of a particular Model, it will not perform as designed if incorrect Data is fed into it which may lead to a System Event potentially subjecting the Partnership to a loss. Further, even if Data is input correctly, model prices anticipated by the Data through the Models may differ substantially from market prices, especially for financial instruments with complex characteristics, such as derivatives, in which the Partnership may invest.
Where incorrect or incomplete Data is available, the Trading Advisor may, and often will, continue to generate forecasts and make investment decisions based on the Data available to it. Additionally, the Trading Advisor may determine that certain available Data, while potentially useful in generating forecasts and/or making investment decisions, is not cost effective to gather due to, among other factors, the technology costs or third-party vendor costs and, in such cases, the Trading Advisor will not utilize such Data. The Trading Advisor has full discretion to select the Data it utilizes. The Trading Advisor may elect to use or may refrain from using any specific Data or type of Data in generating forecasts or making trading decisions with respect to the Models. The Data utilized in generating forecasts or making trading decisions underlying the Models may not be (i) the most accurate data available or (ii) free of errors. The Data set used in connection with the Models is limited. The foregoing risks associated with gathering, cleaning, culling and analysis of large amounts of Data are an inherent part of investing with a quantitative, process-driven, systematic adviser such as the Trading Advisor.
When Models and Data prove to be incorrect, misleading or incomplete, any decisions made in reliance thereon expose the Partnership to potential losses and such losses may be compounded over time. For example, by relying on Models and Data, the Trading Advisor may be induced to buy certain investments at prices that are too high, to sell certain other investments at prices that are too low, or to miss favorable opportunities altogether. Similarly, any hedging based on faulty Models and Data may prove to be unsuccessful and when determining the Net Asset Value of the Partnership, any valuations of the Partnerships investments that are based on valuation Models may prove to be incorrect. In addition, Models may incorrectly forecast future behavior, leading to potential losses on a cash flow and/or a mark-to-market basis. Furthermore, in unforeseen or certain low-probability scenarios (often involving a market event or disruption of some kind), Models may produce unexpected results which may or may not be System Events.
Errors in Models and Data are often extremely difficult to detect, and, in the case of Models, the difficulty of detecting System Events may be exacerbated by the lack of design documents or specifications. Regardless of how difficult their detection appears in retrospect, some System Events may go undetected for long periods of time and some may never be detected. When a System Event is detected, a review and analysis of the circumstances that may have caused a reported System Event will be completed and is overseen by an escalation committee made up of appropriate senior personnel. Following this review, the Trading Advisor in its sole discretion may choose not to address or fix such System Event, and the third party software will lead to System Events known to the Trading Advisor that it chooses, in its sole discretion, not to address or fix. The degradation or impact caused by these System Events can compound over time. When a System Event is detected, the Trading Advisor generally will not, as part of the review of circumstances leading to the System Event, perform a materiality analysis on the potential impact of a System Event. The Trading Advisor believes that the testing and monitoring performed on Models and the controls adopted to ensure processes are undertaken with care will enable the Trading Advisor to identify and address those System Events that a prudent person managing a quantitative, systematic and computerized investment program would identify and address by correcting the underlying issue(s) giving rise to the System Events, but there is no guarantee of the success of such processes. Investors should assume that System Events and their ensuing risks and
5
impact are an inherent part of investing with a process-driven, systematic investment manager such as the Trading Advisor. Accordingly, the Trading Advisor does not expect to disclose discovered System Events to the Partnership or to its investors.
The Partnership will bear the risks associated with the reliance on Models and Data including bearing all losses related to System Events other than in relation to losses arising from the Trading Advisors willful misconduct, negligence or breach of fiduciary obligations.
Trade Systems and Execution of Orders. The Trading Advisor relies extensively on computer programs, systems, technology, Data and Models to implement its execution strategies and algorithms. The Trading Advisors investment strategies, trading strategies and algorithms depend on its ability to establish and maintain an overall market position in a combination of financial instruments selected by the Trading Advisor. There is a risk that the Trading Advisors proprietary algorithmic trading systems may not be able to adequately react to a market event without serious disruption. Further, trading strategies and algorithms may malfunction causing severe losses. While the Trading Advisor has employed tools to allow for human intervention to respond to significant system malfunctions, it cannot be guaranteed that losses will not occur in such circumstances as unforeseen market events and disruptions and execution system issues.
Orders may not be executed in a timely and efficient manner due to various circumstances, including, without limitation, trading volume surges or systems failures attributable to the Trading Advisor, the Trading Advisors counterparties, brokers, dealers, agents or other service providers. In such event, the Trading Advisor might only be able to acquire or dispose of some, but not all, of the components of such position, or if the overall position were to need adjustment, the Trading Advisor might not be able to make such adjustment. As a result, the Partnership would not be able to achieve the market position selected by the Trading Advisor, which may result in a loss.
Trade Error Risk. The complex execution modalities operated by the Trading Advisor and the speed and volume of trading invariably result in occasional trades being executed which, with the benefit of hindsight, were not required or intended by the execution strategy or occasional trades not being executed when they should have been. To the extent a trade error is caused by counterparty, such as a broker, the Trading Advisor generally, to the extent reasonable and practical, attempts to recover any loss associated with such trade error from such counterparty. To the extent a trade error is caused by the Trading Advisor, a formalized process is in place for the documentation and resolution of such trade errors. Given the volume, diversity and complexity of transactions executed by the Trading Advisor on behalf of the Partnership, investors should assume that trade errors will occur on occasion. If such trade errors result in gains to the Partnership, such gains will generally be retained by the Partnership. However, if a trade error result in losses, they will be borne by the Trading Advisor in accordance with its internal policies unless otherwise determined by the General Partner.
Trading in OTC Markets Will Expose the Partnership to Risks Not Applicable to Trading on Organized Exchanges. The Partnership, through the Trading Company, may engage in OTC derivative transactions, such as: currency forward contracts traded in the interbank market; options on currency forward contracts; and swap transactions.
In general, there is much less governmental regulation and supervision of transactions in the OTC markets than of transactions entered into on organized exchanges. Most of the protections afforded to participants on U.S. and certain non-U.S. exchanges, such as daily price fluctuation limits and the performance guarantee of an exchange clearinghouse, will not be available in connection with OTC transactions. Consequently, the Partnership will be exposed to greater risk of loss through default than if it confined its trading to organized exchanges.
A portion of the Partnerships assets may be traded in forward contracts. Such forward contracts are generally not traded on exchanges and are executed directly through forward contract dealers. However, certain forward currency exchange contracts are regulated as swaps by the CFTC and have begun being voluntarily traded on swap execution facilities. Some of these contracts may be required to be centrally cleared by a regulated U.S. clearinghouse, and may be required to be traded on a regulated exchange in the future. There is no limitation on the daily price moves of forward contracts, and a dealer is not required to continue to make markets in such contracts. There have been periods during which forward contract dealers have refused to quote prices for forward contracts or have quoted prices with an unusually wide spread between the bid and asked price. Arrangements to trade forward contracts may therefore experience liquidity problems. The Partnership therefore will be subject to the risk of credit failure or the inability of or refusal of a forward contract dealer to perform with respect to its forward contracts.
When trading currency forward contracts, the Trading Company may hedge the foreign currencies in order to limit the Trading Companys exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. However, there is no guarantee that such hedging will be successful.
Enhanced Regulation of the OTC Derivatives Markets. The European Market Infrastructure Regulation (EMIR) seeks comprehensively to regulate the OTC derivatives market in Europe including, in particular, imposing mandatory central clearing, trade reporting and, for non-centrally cleared trades, risk management obligations on counterparties. Similarly, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Reform Act), enacted in July 2010, includes provisions that substantially increase the regulation of the OTC derivatives markets. The Reform Act requires that a substantial portion of OTC derivatives must be executed in regulated markets and be submitted for clearing to regulated clearinghouses, subject to margin requirements. OTC derivative dealers also are required to post margin to the clearinghouses through which they clear their customers trades instead of using such margin in their operations as was widely permitted before the Reform Act. Taken together, these regulatory developments have increased and will continue to increase the OTC derivative dealers costs, and these increased costs are generally passed through to other market participants in the form of higher upfront and mark-to-market margin, less favorable trade pricing, and the imposition of new or increased fees including clearing account maintenance fees.
The CFTC requires, and the SEC may in the future require, certain derivatives transactions that were previously executed on a bilateral basis in the OTC markets to be executed through a regulated futures or swap exchange or execution facility. Similarly, under EMIR, European regulators may require a substantial proportion of such derivatives transactions to be bought on exchange and/or centrally
6
cleared. Such requirements may make it more difficult and costly for investment funds, including the Partnership and/or the Trading Company, to enter into highly tailored or customized transactions. They may also render certain strategies in which the Partnership might otherwise engage impossible or so costly that they will no longer be economical to implement. The overall impact of EMIR and the Reform Act on the Partnership remains uncertain and it is unclear how the OTC derivatives markets will adapt to these new regulatory regimes.
Exchanges for Physicals/Swaps/Risk. While not a regular practice for the Trading Company, it may in rare instances engage in transactions known as exchanges for physicals (EFP), exchanges for swaps (EFS), or exchanges for risk/OTC derivatives (EFR). An EFP/EFS/EFR is a purchase or sale of a spot commodity/swap/derivative, as applicable, in conjunction with an offsetting sale or purchase of a corresponding futures contract involving the same or equivalent underlying commodity or instrument, without making an open and competitive trade for the futures contract on the exchange. EFPs, EFSs and EFRs are a permitted exception to the general requirement of the CEA that all futures contracts must be competitively executed on an exchange. They are permitted pursuant to the rules of the relevant exchanges, which vary from exchange to exchange. If the EFP, EFS or EFR does not comply with specific exchange requirements, particularly regarding possessing documentation evidencing possession of the underlying commodity or instrument, then the CFTC or the exchange may deem the transaction to be an illegal off-exchange futures contract. In addition, every EFP, EFS or EFR involves the transfer of an underlying commodity or entry into a swap or derivative on a bilateral basis, as applicable, with a counterparty in exchange for a related cleared futures contract. There is, therefore, counterparty credit risk if the counterparty or its clearing member on the futures leg fails to perform. Unlike other futures contracts that are deemed cleared by the clearinghouse upon trade matching or at the end of the business day, futures contracts arising out of EFPs, EFSs or EFRs may, under various clearinghouse rules, not be deemed accepted by the clearinghouse until the next business day.
Options on Futures Contracts May Be More Volatile Than Futures Contracts. The Trading Advisor may trade options on futures contracts. Options are speculative in nature and are highly leveraged. The purchaser of an option risks losing the entire purchase price of the option. The seller (writer) of an option risks losing the difference between the premium received for the option and the price of the underlying futures contract that the writer must purchase upon exercise of the option. Additionally, the seller and writer of the options lose any commissions and fees associated with such transactions. This could subject the writer to unlimited risk in the event of an increase in the price of the contract to be purchased or delivered. Successful trading of options on futures contracts requires a trader to accurately determine near-term market volatility because it often has an immediate impact on the price of outstanding options. Accurate determination of near-term volatility is more important to successful options trading than it is to long-term futures contract trading strategies because such volatility generally does not have as significant an effect on the prices of futures contracts.
Trading on Non-U.S. Exchanges and Markets Will Expose the Partnership to Risks Not Applicable to Trading on U.S. Exchanges and Markets. The Partnership, through the Trading Company, may engage in trading on non-U.S. exchanges and markets. The Partnership will be subject to the risk of fluctuations in the currency exchange rate between the local currency and the U.S. dollar and to the possibility of exchange controls. Trading on such exchanges and markets generally involves other risks not applicable to trading on U.S. exchanges and markets.
For example, such exchanges and markets:
may not provide the same assurances of the integrity (financial and otherwise) of the marketplace and its participants as do U.S. exchanges and markets;
may exercise less regulatory oversight and supervision over transactions and participants in transactions;
may not afford all participants an equal opportunity to execute trades;
may be subject to a variety of political influences and the possibility of direct governmental intervention;
may have different clearance and settlement procedures for transactions than U.S. exchanges and markets. There have been times when settlement procedures have been unable to keep pace with the volume of transactions on certain exchanges and markets, making it difficult to conduct trades; and
may be principals markets in which performance is the responsibility only of the member with whom the trader has dealt (the counterparty) rather than the responsibility of an exchange or clearing association. Each transaction on such an exchange or market may subject the Partnership to the risk of the counterpartys credit failure or inability or refusal to perform its obligations.
Institutional Risks. Institutions, such as the banks and brokers, will have custody of the assets of the Partnership. These firms may encounter financial difficulties that impair the operating capabilities or the capital position of the Partnership, the Trading Company or the General Partner.
Counterparty Risk. The Partnership will be subject to the risk of the inability of counterparties to perform with respect to transactions, particularly uncleared swap and currency forward transactions, whether due to insolvency, bankruptcy or other causes, which could subject the Partnership to substantial losses. In an effort to mitigate such risks, the General Partner and Trading Advisor will attempt to limit transactions to counterparties, which are established, well-capitalized and creditworthy.
7
Affiliated Parties Conflicts of Interest. Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has the authority to engage trading advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. Since the Trading Advisor is an affiliate of the General Partner, the General Partner has a conflict of interest with respect to its responsibilities to manage the Partnership for the benefit of the Limited Partners, and to prevent violations of the Partnerships trading policies and to monitor for excessive trading by the Trading Advisor. In addition, the General Partner has a conflict of interest with respect to its responsibility to review the trading performance of the Partnership and a disincentive to terminate the advisory relationship between the Trading Advisor and the Partnership. There have been no arms-length negotiations with respect to the management and incentive fees that the Trading Advisor will charge the Trading Company or with respect to the other terms of the advisory agreement entered into with the Trading Advisor.
MiFID II. Each of the European Unions re-cast Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (2014/65/EU) (the MiFID II Directive), the delegated and implementing European Union (EU) regulations made thereunder, the laws and regulations introduced by Member States of the EU to implement the MiFID II Directive and the EUs Markets in Financial Instruments Regulation (600/2014) (MiFIR and, together with the MiFID II Directive, MiFID II) impose new regulatory obligations on the Trading Advisor. These regulatory obligations may impact on, and constrain the implementation of, the investment strategy of the Partnership and lead to increased compliance obligations upon and accrued expenses for the Trading Advisor and/or the Partnership.
Effects of Health Crises and Other Catastrophic Events. Health crises, such as pandemic and epidemic diseases, as well as other catastrophes such as natural disasters, war or civil disturbance, acts of terrorism, power outages and other unforeseeable and external events, that result in disrupted markets and/or interrupt the expected course of events, and public response to or fear of such crises or events, may have an adverse effect on the operations of and, where applicable, investments made by the Partnership and the Trading Company. For example, any preventative or protective actions taken by governments in response to such crises or events may result in periods of regional, national or international business disruption. Such actions may significantly disrupt the operations of the Partnership, the Trading Company, the General Partner and the other service providers to the Partnership. Further, the occurrence and duration of such crises or events could adversely affect economies and financial markets either in specific countries or worldwide. The impact of such crises or events could lead to negative consequences for the Partnership, including, without limitation, significant reduction in the Net Asset Value of the Partnership, reduced liquidity of the Partnerships investments, restrictions on the ability of the Partnership to value its investments and the potential suspension of the calculation of Net Asset Value and the suspension of issues and/or redemptions of Interests.
Risks Associated with Use of AI. In line with advances in computing technology and data analytics, there has been an increasing trend towards utilizing artificial generative intelligence, large language models, machine learning, artificial neural networks, artificial narrow intelligence, or similar tools, models and systems generally referred to as alternative intelligence (collectively, AI Tools) as part of portfolio management, trading, portfolio risk management and other applications in the investment management processes used by various market participants. The Trading Advisor may utilize AI Tools in connection with managing the Partnership and certain vendors and counterparties of the Partnership, including third-party research providers, may use AI Tools. Although AI Tools have certain advantages and benefits for various applications, there are also risks to the Partnership that derive from the usage of AI Tools. In particular, many AI Tools are relatively recent developments and may be subject to one or more undetected errors, defects or security vulnerabilities. Some errors may be discovered only after an AI Tool has been used by end customers or after substantial operations in the marketplace. Any exploitable errors or security vulnerabilities discovered after such AI Tools are in widespread operation could result in substantial loss of revenues or assets, or material liabilities or sanctions.
Tariffs and Trade Wars. The imposition of substantial tariffs by the United States on other nations, along with retaliatory measures by such other nations, has created a period of increased economic volatility. The future of the trading relationships between the United States and such other nations is uncertain, and the failure of those countries to resolve their current disputes could have materially adverse effects on the global economy. This, and/or future downturns in the global economy, significant introductions of barriers to trade or even bilateral trade frictions between the United States and its trading partners or countries representing key export markets could adversely affect the financial performance of the Partnership.
General Economic and Market Conditions. The success of the Partnerships activities will be affected by general economic and market conditions, such as interest rates, availability of credit, inflation rates, economic uncertainty, market disruptions and recessionary concerns. These factors may affect the level and volatility of the prices and liquidity of the Partnerships investments. Volatility or illiquidity could impair the Partnerships profitability or result in losses. The Partnership may maintain substantial trading positions that can be adversely affected by the level of volatility in the financial markets; the larger the positions, the greater the potential for loss. It is important to understand that the Partnership can incur material losses even if it reacts quickly to difficult market conditions and there can be no assurance that the Partnership will not suffer material adverse effects from broad and rapid changes in market conditions.
Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.
Not applicable.
Item 1C. Cybersecurity.
Risk Management and Strategy. The General Partner has written plans, procedures and policies that govern the Partnerships general information security program. The General Partner has a Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA) framework to help identify, measure, monitor and report important operational risks faced by the General Partner. Man Group has a Cyber Incident Response Plan (CIRP) which dictates how the Partnership reviews and responds to security alerts, events and incidents. Pursuant to the written incident response plan, in the event of a cybersecurity incident, the security team first identifies the incident, triages, and responds. The General Partners compliance team is also notified of the cybersecurity incident and, in conjunction with the legal team, assists in
8
incident remediation and determining the materiality. As applicable, RCSAs are filed with the General Partners operational risk team in order to keep the General Partner informed on cyber risks. Ultimately, an aggregate response to a cyber incident is reported to Man Groups risk committees, creating awareness and consideration of the top risks and overall levels of risk exposure.
The operational risk team also has service provider monitoring in place in order to oversee and identify cybersecurity threats associated with the Partnerships use of third-party service providers. Prior to onboarding, the Partnership conducts due diligence for key new third-party services providers. This involves a diligence questionnaire sent by a cybersecurity training company that is then reviewed by the Partnership. The training company also assess the Partnerships security status during onboarding for services providers and, for critical suppliers, at regular intervals throughout the life of the suppliers contract.
The Audit and Risk Committee (ARCom) of the board of directors of the General Partners parent entity, (the Board) is responsible for risk governance and management frameworks, determining risk strategy and ensuring that risk is monitored and controlled effectively. The risk management framework requires that the Partnership operates within acceptable risk tolerances, while risk governance provides a foundation for potential oversight in an evolving cyber environment. The ARCom meets quarterly to discuss cybersecurity risks and events and reports its findings to the Board. The chief information security officer presents to the ARCom quarterly, including providing incident reports for potentially material security incidents, and all Board members have the opportunity to ask questions. The full Board also discusses cybersecurity risks and events quarterly.
The General Partner uses both internal and external auditors for cybersecurity services. The General Partner maintains an Information Security Steering Committee chaired by Man Groups chief information security officer (CISO) and which contains, among other members, Man Groups chief technology officer (CTO). The CISO is a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) and has over a decade of experience in the fields of technology and security. The General Partner utilizes a Security Operations Center (SOC) model and annual reports to prevent, detect, and respond to cybersecurity incidents. The General Partner has regular cybersecurity audits conducted by KPMG. Further, the General Partner contracts third parties to perform quarterly phishing testing, annual penetration tests, and a bi-annual red team exercise. These exercises consist of virtual simulations of cybersecurity incidents in order to test the effectiveness of the General Partners cybersecurity protection program. The exercises also help prepare the General Partner and Partnership to sufficiently respond in the instance of cybersecurity incidents. The General Partner also has a dedicated compliance function that focuses on the General Partners international operations in order to comply with international cybersecurity laws. The General Partner uses these processes as well as the RCSA and CIRP to stay informed about and monitor the prevention, detection, mitigation, and remediation of cybersecurity incidents.
Employees are required to complete annual cybersecurity training. The training is updated periodically in order to stay up to date with current laws and was last updated in the fourth quarter of 2023. The General Partner models risks, including security risks, and allocates risk capital accordingly, and does not carry cyber insurance.
In the past, the Partnership has experienced actual and attempted cybersecurity events and incidents. While prior incidents have not materially affected the General Partners or the Partnerships business strategy, results of operations or financial condition, and although the General Partners processes are designed to help prevent, detect, respond to, and mitigate the impact of such incidents, there is no guarantee that a future cyber incident would not materially affect the General Partners or the Partnerships business strategy, results of operations or financial condition. To date, the General Partner has not identified any risks from cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, that have materially affected the General Partner, the Partnership, the General Partners business strategy, the Partnerships results of operation or the Partnerships financial conditions.
Breaches in Information Technology Security. The General Partner and the Trading Advisor maintain information technology systems, consisting of infrastructure, applications and communications networks to support the Partnership as well as its own business activities. These systems could be subject to security breaches such as cyber-crime resulting in theft, a disruption in the Trading Advisors ability to close out positions and the disclosure or corruption of sensitive and confidential information. Security breaches may also result in misappropriation of assets and could create significant financial and/or legal exposure for the Partnership. The General Partner and the Trading Advisor seek to mitigate attacks on their own systems but will not be able to control directly the risks to third-party systems to which it may connect. Any breach in security of the General Partners or the Trading Advisors systems could have a material adverse effect on the General Partner or the Trading Advisor and may cause the Partnership to suffer, among other things, financial loss, the disruption of its business, liability to third parties, regulatory intervention or reputational damage.
Item 2. Properties.
The Partnership does not own or use any physical properties in the conduct of its business. The General Partner and various service providers perform services for the Partnership from their offices.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
The General Partner is not aware of any pending material legal proceedings to which either the Partnership is a party or to which any of its assets are subject. In addition there are no pending material legal proceedings involving either the General Partner or Trading Advisor.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.
[Reserved]
Item 7. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Reference is made to Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. The information contained therein is essential to, and should be read in conjunction with, the following analysis.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Units may be offered for sale as of the first business day and may be redeemed as of the last business day, of each month.
The Partnership raises additional capital only through the sale of Units and capital is increased through trading profits (if any) and interest income. The Partnership does not engage in borrowing. The Partnership, not being an operating company, does not incur capital expenditures. It functions solely as a passive trading vehicle, investing the substantial majority of its assets in the Trading Company. Its remaining capital resources are used only as assets available to make further investments in the Trading Company and to pay Partnership expenses. Accordingly, the amount of capital raised for the Partnership should not have a significant impact on its operations.
Partnership assets not invested in the Trading Company are maintained in cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts or accounts with The Bank of New York Mellon and are readily available to the Partnership. The Partnership may redeem any part or all of its limited partnership interest in the Trading Company at any month-end at the net asset value per unit of the Trading Company. The Trading Companys assets are generally held as cash or cash equivalents which are used to margin futures and provide collateral for forward contracts and other OTC contract positions and are withdrawn, as necessary, to pay redemptions (to the Partnership and other investors in the Trading Company). Other than potential market-imposed limitations on liquidity, due, for example, to limited open interest in certain futures markets or to daily price fluctuation limits, which are inherent in the Trading Companys futures trading, the Trading Companys assets are highly liquid and are expected to remain so.
During its operations through December 31, 2025, the Partnership experienced no meaningful periods of illiquidity in any of the numerous markets in which it trades.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Partnership records its transactions in futures contracts, forward contracts and other derivatives, including related income and expenses, on a trade-date basis. Open futures contracts traded on an exchange are valued at fair value, which is based on the closing settlement price on the exchange where the futures contract is traded by the Partnership on the day with respect to which the Partnerships Net Asset Value is being determined. Open forward contracts and other derivatives are valued at fair value using independent pricing services, which use market observable inputs in their valuations. If the General Partner determines the fair value of an investment cannot be accurately determined pursuant to the foregoing methods, such investment shall be assigned such fair value as the General Partner may determine in its sole discretion.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions, such as accrual of expenses, that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements. Based on the nature of the business and operations engaged in by the Partnership, the General Partner believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the Partnerships financial statements are appropriate and reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the estimates. The estimates do not provide a range of possible results that would require the exercise of subjective judgment. The General Partner further believes that, based on the nature of the business and operations of the Partnership, no other reasonable assumptions relating to the application of the Partnerships critical accounting estimates other than those to be used would likely result in materially different amounts from those reported. The Partnerships significant accounting policies are described in detail in Note 2 to the Financial Statements.

Results of Operations
Due to the nature of the Partnerships trading, the Partnerships income or loss from operations may vary widely from period to period. Management cannot predict whether the Partnerships future Net Asset Value per Unit will increase or experience a decline. The Partnership was organized in September 1997 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and commenced operations on April 3, 1998.
Performance Summary
The Partnership is a speculative managed futures fund which trades pursuant to the AHL Diversified Program, indirectly through its investment in the Trading Company. The AHL Diversified Program is a futures and forward OTC price trend-following, trading system. The AHL Diversified Program is entirely quantitative in nature and implements trading positions on the basis of statistical analyses of past price histories. The AHL Diversified Program, like most trend-following systems, is designed in the anticipation that most of its trades will be unprofitable; the objective of overall profitability depends on the system identifying certain major trends which occur and recognizing significant profits from participating in such trends.
The past performance of the AHL Diversified Program is not necessarily indicative of its future results. This is the case with all speculative trading strategies. Moreover, the markets in which the AHL Diversified Program is active have seen major changes in recent years, including the influx of entirely different classes of market participants. These changed circumstances may mean that the markets in which the Trading Advisor has previously traded on behalf of the Trading Company are not necessarily representative of those in which it trades on behalf of the Trading Company currently.
As a speculative futures fund, the Partnership (through the Trading Company) effectively maintains all of its capital in reserve. The Trading Company does not buy or sell futures or forward contracts in the traditional sense; rather, through taking positions in these markets, the Trading Company, and thus the Partnership indirectly, acquires loss/profit exposure and uses its capital to cover losses and provide margin (which constitutes a good faith deposit towards the Trading Companys (but not the Partnerships) obligation to pay such losses) to support its open positions. Each of the Partnership and the Trading Company maintains most of its capital in cash and cash equivalents.
Futures trading programs are proprietary and confidential. As is the case with any speculative futures fund, it is impossible to predict how the Partnership will perform. It is not possible, as it is in the case of an operating business, to predict performance trends, analyze future market conditions or evaluate the likely success or failure of the Partnership.
There are certain general market conditions in which the Partnership is more likely to be profitable than in others. For example, in trendless or stagnant markets, the AHL Diversified Program is unlikely to be profitable. On the other hand, trending markets with substantial price change momentum can be favorable to the AHL Diversified Trading Program. However, because of the continually changing population of market participants as well as supply and demand characteristics, it cannot be predicted how the AHL Diversified Program, and thus the Partnership, will perform in any given market conditions.

In January, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. A long position in the FTSE Taiwan Index caused minor losses on the month overall, but there were significant gains from long positions in European indices such as Germanys DAX Index and FTSE Italia All Share Index. In February, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. Trading in risk assets finished the month in the black, but there was considerable dispersion. Technology stocks experienced another month of volatility, leading to losses from the Partnerships longs in both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 indices. Europes equities proved far more resilient, where the Partnerships long position in the FTSE Italia All-Share Index performed positively. In March, the Partnerships equities trading was negative. The Partnerships equity positions, many of which had transitioned from long to short by the end of the month, posted losses. Within indices, the worst performers were Swedens OMX Stockholm 30 and Indias Nifty, while long positions in South Africas All Share and the Hang Seng generated offsetting gains. In April, the Partnerships equities trading was negative. The Partnerships positions in the Swiss Market Index and the Hang Seng indices produced losses, while a short position in the Russell 2000 Index generated a small offsetting gain. In May, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. In a similar vein to earlier in the year, longs across Europe led gains, notably in FTSE Italia and DAX indices. In June, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. June saw risk assets advance with both the S&P 500 and Korean KOPSI indices hitting all-time highs leading to gains in long Korean KOPSI. Gains in stocks were led by long KOPSI. The Partnerships long positions in MSCI EM and U.S. indices extended gains. In July, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. Long exposure to stock indices generated gains. Positions in the FTSE and Asian indices led contributions, boosted by U.S. indices amid major trade announcements. Decreases in a long position in the Euro STOXX index coincided with investors uncertain on the value of the U.S.-European trade deal. In August, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. Gains were geographically diversified, led by long positions in the FTSE China A50 and Canadas S&P/TSX 60 indices. Positions in the S&P/ASX 200 and TOPIX indices also generated gains. In September, the Partnerships equities trading was positive. Equities drove performance as broad-based long positioning benefited the Partnership. A long position in the MSCI Emerging Markets index led the way, closely followed by Asia-Pacific indices. Positions in the Korean KOPSI, FTSE Taiwan and Hang Seng indices generated gains. In October, equities trading was positive, driven by long positioning in the Asia-Pacific markets. The top performer was a long KOSPI position, coinciding with the index hitting record highs to become the best-performing global equity benchmark year-to-date. Long Nikkei and FTSE Taiwan indices positions also added. In November, equities trading was negative amid intra-month volatility. Long Nasdaq and Nikkei positions led declines. Long positions in the Swiss Market Index and S&P/TSX 60 Index provided small offsetting gains. In December, a broad-based long position across global equity markets generated gains, particularly in European and Asian-Pacific regions. Long Swiss Market Index and Swedish OMX Stockholm 30 indices led gains in Europe, while long KOSPI and FTSE Taiwan indices positions drove gains in Asia-Pacific. Gains more than offset minor losses from a long position in the Nasdaq Index.
In January, the Partnerships credit trading was positive. The Partnerships gains were made primarily in European investment-grade and high-yield indices. In February, the Partnerships credit trading was positive. The Partnership had a loss from a long credit position in U.S. high yield which was more than offset by a gain from similar positioning in European high yield. In March, the Partnerships credit trading was negative. In April, the Partnerships credit trading was also negative. Long credit positions generated losses. In May, the Partnerships credit trading turned positive. The Partnerships net long positioning was profitable. In June, the Partnerships credit trading was positive. Gains were compounded by high yield credit exposure in both the U.S. and Europe. In August, the Partnerships credit trading was muted, as marginal gains from long U.S. credit risk were largely offset by European exposure. In October, credit trading was flat. In November, credit trading was marginally positive, with short (long credit risk) positions in European and U.S. investment grade and high yield credit default swap indices adding small gains. In December, long credit risk (short credit default swap) exposure in European high-yield and investment grade credit default swap indices generated gains.
In January, the Partnerships commodities trading was positive. Within commodities, agricultural were profitable while returns from trading metals and energies were more muted. The Partnerships long positions in coffee and live cattle were profitable. Within metals, gains from long gold positions were offset by losses trading copper. Energies trading was also flat overall, with profits from long positions in European Union Allowance Carbon Emissions offset by losses from trading crude oil. In February, the Partnership experienced losses across all three commodity sub-sectors. The Partnerships long position in cocoa fell amid softening prices, reversing recent trends. The Partnerships long positions in U.S. natural gas generated gains, but its metals trading generated losses, mainly resulting from longs in platinum and silver. In March, the Partnerships commodities trading was positive, driven by metals where gold had its largest quarterly rise since 1986 and a long silver position was also a top performer for the Partnership. Comparatively, the Partnership experienced some losses as oil prices continued to fluctuate, though a long U.S. natural gas was also a top performer for the Partnership. Long positions in live and feeder cattle, however, helped generate gains for the Partnerships agricultural trading, coinciding with new price highs. In April, the Partnerships commodities trading was negative. Within commodities, the main driver of negative performance was in metals, but there was dispersion. A long gold position was profitable. A long silver position on the other hand, was unprofitable. Within energies, U.S. natural gas generated a loss, and in agricultural, profits from trading wheat were offset by losses from soybeans. In May, the Partnerships commodities trading was negative. Commodities trading proved challenging as all sleeves ended in the red, and energies led losses. Long coffee drove agricultural to losses. Gains from longs in livestock were only able to partially offset. Metals compounded losses, with long precious the primary detractors. In June, the Partnerships commodities trading
13
was positive. Commodities were mixed, with gains from agricultural and metals trading offsetting losses from energies. Shorts in sugar and corn proved profitable, with sugar prices falling. Long platinum and silver pushed metals into the black but were countered by losses from long exposure across the oil complex. In July, the Partnerships commodities trading was positive, as gains in energies and agricultural outweighed metal losses. In energies, a short U.S. natural gas position and long positions across the oil complex were profitable. Long cattle positions gained as prices rose amid sustained demand and reduced supply. The primary detractor was a long copper position, during a period when copper was excluded from tariffs and the price premium on U.S. futures decreased. In August, the Partnerships commodities trading was positive. Commodities were bifurcated, with gains from metals and agricultural offsetting losses in energies. Long exposure across the precious metals complex gained, led by silver and gold. In agricultural, gains from long cattle contracts were offset by coffee, where the Partnership changed its positioning from short to long. In energies, gains from short U.S. natural gas positions were offset by longs across the oil complex. In September, the Partnerships commodities trading was positive. Gains were driven by metals, primarily long precious metals exposure, amid U.S. rate cut expectations, a potential government shutdown, and geopolitical tensions. In commodities, gold led the performance charts. Trading in agricultural also proved accretive, led by a short position in wheat. Gains were partially offset, however, by detractors in energies, namely a short European energy position. In October, commodity performance was mixed, as profits from precious metals were offset by losses in energies and agricultural. A long gold position led gains. In energies, a short U.S. natural gas position declined as prices increased. In agricultural, short soymeal and wheat positions drove losses, which were partially offset by a short sugar position. In November commodities, metals and energies trading added to gains, with agricultural trading mostly flat. In metals, long positions across the precious complex drove profits. In energies, long European carbon emissions and short Dutch and United Kingdom natural gas led gains. Agricultural were muted as a profitable short cocoa position was offset by a short sugar position. In December, commodities gained as profits from metals trading offset losses from agricultural and energies. Long precious metals exposure drove gains, with platinum and silver leading the way, and copper further adding gains. Trading in long coffee and short U.S. natural gas positions proved challenging.
In January, the Partnerships currencies trading was negative. A long U.S. dollar position stumbled mid-month amid underlying tariff uncertainties, and crosses against the Brazilian real and Japanese yen were the worst affected. A long U.S. dollar position against the Canadian dollar, however, benefited the Partnership over the course of the month. In February, the Partnerships currencies trading was negative. The Partnership experienced losses in currency pairs such as the Swedish krona and Chilean peso, but the greatest loss was seen for the Japanese yen, which rose against the U.S. dollar, coinciding with strong economic data. However, the Partnership generated a gain from a short position in the New Taiwanese dollar. In March, the Partnerships FX trading was negative. The Partnerships short positions against the U.S. dollar, such as the Indian rupee and Swiss franc, experienced losses, while offsetting gains were seen in the Partnerships positions in the Polish zloty and Brazilian real that were long or moved to long against the U.S. dollar early in the month. In April, the Partnerships currencies trading was negative. The U.S. dollar trade-weighted index fell. Emerging market currencies fell relative to the U.S. dollar. Losses were incurred in the South African rand and Brazilian real. U.S. dollar positions against the Swedish krona and Indian rupee generated small offsetting gains. In May, the Partnerships FX trading was negative. In June, the Partnerships FX trading was positive. The Partnerships broad-based short U.S. dollar exposure contributed to gains as well as a host of Latin American-U.S. dollar crosses, in particular the Brazilian Real and Mexican Peso against the U.S. dollar. Long Euro further added, along with gains from other emerging market and developed market U.S. dollar crosses. In July, the Partnerships FX trading was negative. A broad-based short U.S. dollar position generated losses. As the U.S. dollar strengthened against most developed and emerging market currencies, long positions in the Great British pound, the Singapore dollar, and the Euro led declines, compounded by losses in Latin American-U.S. dollar crosses. A short Japanese yen position, however, generated gains. In September, the Partnerships FX trading was positive. The Partnerships short positioning against the U.S. dollar was beneficial, particularly in Latin American-U.S. dollar crosses. Amid policy uncertainty, long positions in the Brazilian real and Mexican peso led gains. Short exposure to the Indian rupee and Japanese yen against the dollar further added to gains. In October, FX trading was positive and benefited from exposure to Asian-Pacific regions, notably a short position in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar. A short position in the New Taiwan dollar further contributed; however, these gains were partially offset by long positions in the Mexican dollar and Norwegian krone as the U.S. dollar rebounded. In November, currencies trading was positive as the Partnership built a net long U.S. dollar position. The top performer was a short Japanese yen position, which depreciated against the U.S. dollar. A short New Taiwanese dollar position further added to the gains. Long exposure in Latin American currencies remained profitable, notably in Mexican dollar, Brazilian real and Columbian peso. In December, FX trading gained as the Partnership built back into its net short U.S. dollar positioning having briefly moved net long the month prior. Long positions in the South African rand, Mexican peso and Chilean peso topped performance charts. Short positions in the Japanese yen and Indian rupee were further accretive.
In January, trading in fixed income generated losses for the Partnership as prices fluctuated with mixed news on inflation. The Partnerships short positions in both the Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA) and Euro Interbank Offered Rate (Euribor) were worst affected, although most positions generated losses. However, a short position in Japanese bonds benefited the Partnership. In February, the Partnership experienced losses in fixed income trading from short positions in U.S. Treasuries across the maturity spectrum. However, a short position in Japanese bonds provided some marginal offsetting gains. In March, the Partnerships fixed income trading was mostly flat, but there was dispersion in individual positions. Losses were seen in the Partnerships position on European short-term rates, while offsetting gains were seen in the Partnerships long position in German bonds. In April, the Partnerships fixed income trading finished the month in the black, with gains from long positions in short-term rates almost offset by losses from mixed positioning in longer duration trades in the U.S. and Germany. In May, the Partnerships fixed income trading was negative. Long SONIA and Euribor suffered. Further out the curve, long Korean index positions added to losses. In June, the Partnerships trading was slightly negative, as long-end exposures contributed to offsetting gains from rates trading. Long Euribor led declines, while shorts in U.S. Treasuries compounded losses. Profits from a long SONIA position provided some relief. In July, the Partnerships fixed income trading was negative. Long Euribor and SONIA positions led declines in rates trading, while long Swedish swaps and Italian government bonds (BTPs) also detracted. In August, the Partnerships fixed income trading was positive, as mixed positioning across the curve proved beneficial. At the short end, a position in Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) led gains amid investors appearing to position for more immediate U.S. rate cuts. At the longer end, German government bonds and U.S. mortgage-backed securities (MBS) generated gains. Long SONIA and Australian inflation-linked government bonds detracted from performance. In September, the Partnerships fixed income trading was negative. Losses were led by a long SOFR position. Elsewhere, losses were muted but broad-based as mixed positioning struggled. Long Australian bonds detracted alongside short positions in Gilts. In October, fixed income positions across the yield curve generated losses. At the shorter end, long Euribor and SOFR positions decreased, adding
14
to losses from a long position in SONIA. Further out, a short Bunds position decreased amid a decline in German interest rates, while long Australian and U.S. bonds also contributed to declines. In November, fixed income trading was positive as short fixed income positions further out the maturity curve drove profits, led by 3-year Korean and Australian bonds. Short 10-year Japanese bonds further added as yields hit levels last seen in 2008. Rates trading was more muted as a long SOFR position offset losses from a short Euribor position. In December, intertest rates trading was bifurcated with losses from shorter tenors outweighing marginal gains further out the curve. A short SOFR position proved challenging alongside a long SONIA position, although short Japanese bonds helped offset losses as yields hit their highest level since 1999.
2024
Partners capital decreased $ 10,462,546 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This decrease was attributable to subscriptions in the amount of $ 415,000, redemptions in the amount of $ 12,250,841 and net gain from operations of $ 1,373,295.

In January, the Partnerships equity trading generated gains. Long positions in the Nikkei and Tokyo Stock Exchange Index were top performers for the Partnership, though a long position in the Korean Kospi generated offsetting losses. In February, the Partnerships equity trading continued its positive trend, with boosts from the S&P500 and Taiwanese indices. Losses were incurred from shorts in the Hang Seng and Chinese equities. In March, the Partnerships equity trading was similarly positive as the Partnerships long positioning in equity indices, particularly in Taiwan, generated gains and offset losses form short positions in the Hang Seng and FTSE China A50 indices. In April, the Partnerships long equity positions generally experienced losses, though a long position in the FTSE100 index delivered some gains as well. In May, the Partnerships net long equity positions, specifically in Taiwanese equities, were profitable. In June, marginal gains in equities were generated as the Partnerships two index positions in Taiwan topped the performance table for both the month and the year, while a loss was experienced from a long in the CAC 40 index. In July, Japanese indices fell and long positions in Taiwanese indices suffered. However, gains from longs in Canadian and Australian indices offset these losses. In August, the Partnerships equity trading was negative, with long Asian indices particularly affected and long US small caps and European indices compounding declines. In September, the Partnerships equity trading returned to positive with longs in the MSCI EM index and Hang Seng as top performers, while a loss was made from a short in the FTSE China A50 index. Trading in equities dipped into the red as October drew to a close, though a long Nikkei position was a lonely bright spot. In November, the Partnerships equities positions had positive returns , notably S&P500, Russell 2000, as well as Canadas TSX, though there were offsetting losses from a long in the tech-heavy FTSE Taiwan index. In December, the Partnerships long equities stance was not profitable. The worst performer was the Russell 2000, while Asian indices such as the Tokyo Stock Exchange and FTSE Taiwan escaped relatively unscathed.
In January, the Partnerships credit trading finished underwater, but in February, long credit positions were accretive, driven by European and US high-yielding names. In March, the Partnerships credit trading continued its positive trend because aggregate long positions in credit, most notably in US investment-grade and high-yield indices, increased. In April, the Partnerships credit trading was negative, as long credit positions generated losses, with the US and EU higher-yielding names faring worst. However, the Partnerships credit trading was positive in May. Broadly positive market sentiment boosted long credit positions, most notably in the US. In June, Credit trading was bifurcated; the Partnership experienced losses from its European index positioning while trading in the US indices finished the month around flat. In July, Credit trading obtained the top performance on the month, led by long positions in high-yielding names in the US and Europe. In August, credit trading was down as credit spreads widened, the Partnerships long high yield exposure lead to declines. Comparatively, long credit positions were all beneficial in September, most notably in high yielding CDS indices on both sides of the Atlantic. In October, long credit positions eked out a small gain in aggregate. In November, long risk positions across the board in CDS generated gains, notably high-yield and investment-grade indices in the US, but long credit positions finished in the red in December.
In January, commodity trading, while largely flat, had some of the Partnerships worst performing positions, including shorts in natural gas, gold and copper. In February, the Partnerships commodities trading turned positive, as agricultural delivered strong returns driven by a short position in corn and a long position in cocoa and energies saw gains accrued from a short in natural gas, while metals trading detracted, led by copper. In March, energies trading was positive, driven by a short in US natural gas and long positions in crude oil gold, and cocoa, while shorts in soybeans and corn provided offsetting losses. In April, metals did the best, with long positions in copper and gold generating positive returns. Returns from trading agricultural were more muted, with losses from a short wheat position offset by gains from long coffee. Energies trading generated losses from short US natural gas, long gas oil and short carbon emissions. In May, commodities trading generated losses, with energies doing the worst, as the Partnerships short in US natural gas was one of the worst performers. Within agricultural, losses stemmed from short positions across the soy complex. Metals trading, however, provided gains through long silver and copper positions. The Partnerships energies trading was negative in June. Trading in metals struggled with losses seen in copper, and energy trading dipped into the red, driven by losses from a short heating oil position. Agricultural trading, on the other hand, generated gains via short positions in corn and in the soy complex. In July, trading in agricultural generated gains, most notably from short soybeans position, while energies trading was broadly flat, with gains from short US natural gas being offset by losses from long oil positions. Within metals, longs in both silver and copper detracted. In August, commodities trading losses stemmed from metals (notably short aluminum) and energies trading (long oil). Agricultural trading partially offset losses as coffee surged. In September, the Partnerships metals trading turned positive on the whole, offset by losses from agricultural and energies trading. Trading in commodities was mixed as a declining US dollar and falling rates were positive for longs in precious metals. A short US
15
natural gas position was hurt as prices rose. Within agricultural, returns were quite disparate; a long in coffee was beneficial, while losses were seen in the soy complex. In October, commodities trading was positive, with gains from metals (gold in particular) and agricultural (shorts in soybeans) outweighing losses from energies, principally from the oil complex (including crude and heating oil). In November, positive returns from agricultural, specifically long positions in coffee, failed to offset losses from short positions in US natural gas and long positions in gold and silver. Similarly in December, commodity trading lost out overall, with losses from long positions US natural gas and gold and short positions in wheat and soyameal more than offsetting gains from long cocoa and short platinum positions.
In January, the Partnerships FX trading was negative. Shorts in both the Japanese Yen and South Korean Won against the US dollar were also profitable, though losses were seen in other positions, notably a long in the New Zealand dollar against the US dollar. In February, the US dollars increasing value generated gains for the Partnerships long USD crosses, with the top performer coming against the Japanese yen. Losses were incurred in the British pound and the New Zealand dollar. In March, the Partnerships trading in currency markets was beneficial in aggregate. The Mexican peso outperformed the US dollar, which was beneficial for the Partnerships long exposure. Short positions in the Japanese yen against multiple currencies generated gains as the currency continued to decline. Losses were experienced trading the Israeli shekel and British pound against the US dollar. In April, the Partnerships currency trading was positive, as the Partnerships net long US dollar positions performed well against a variety of currencies, specifically, the Japanese Yen. Though a short position in the US dollar against the Mexican Peso generated a loss. In May, the Partnerships currency trading turned negative. The Partnerships broad net long US dollar positioning, most notably against the Swiss franc and Norwegian krone incurred losses. Japans yen rose, generating losses, but were mostly recovered as it fell back again as the month progressed. In June, trading in currencies finished flat, but there was considerable intra-sector variability. The Japanese yen continued to fall against multiple currencies, which suited positioning, though gains were offset from losses in the Partnerships long position in the Mexican peso against the US dollar. In July, the Partnerships currency trading was negative. A net long US dollar overall position was not profitable, while the Partnerships short yen position against the US dollar was also unprofitable, however, the Partnerships position in Sterling against a basket of currencies led to some offsetting gains. The Partnerships currency trading continued negative in August. Forex trading dragged on performance amid a softening US dollar, particularly against Asian currencies, where short exposure to the Korean won and Chinese renminbi drove declines. The US dollar weakening hurt the Partnerships net long US dollar positioning, however long Sterling helped offset as the pound hit a two-year high against the US dollar. However, in September, the Partnerships currency trading reverted to positive as a decreasing US dollar lead to gains in currency pairs such as the South African rand and British pound. Losses were incurred from a long position in the Chilean peso against the US dollar, however, as the Chilean central bank cut rates but gave dovish forward guidance. In October, the Partnerships currency trading was negative, with losses in the Partnerships aggregate short positioning in the US dollar and positions in the British pound, while the Partnerships position in the Japanese yen generated some offsetting gains. In November, the long US dollar positions provided gains, along with positions in the South Korean won and Swiss franc, while the British pound provided offsetting losses. In December, the Partnership saw profits from the Partnerships short position in the Japanese yen, as well as a short position in the Korean won against the US dollar. Losses were incurred trading the South African rand.
In January, the Partnerships fixed income trading was negative with the Partnerships net long exposure accounted for most of the Partnerships losses for the month. In February, fixed income trading turned positive, with gains from short positions in short duration instruments, including SOFR and 2-year German bonds. Losses were incurred from long positions in Italian bonds. In March, fixed income trading finished the month negative as well, and flat aggregate net positions. The Italian 10-year bond futures performed positively, while a short position in SONIA generated a loss. In April, the Partnerships fixed income trading was positive. The Partnerships short fixed income positions were largely profitable, though losses were experienced trading Japanese bond futures. In May, the Partnerships bond trading was negative. The increase in bonds in the beginning of the month hurt the Partnerships short positions in treasuries across the maturity spectrum, though despite an early loss in the Partnerships short position in Japanese bonds, the position ended the month as the sectors top performer. In June, the Partnerships fixed income trading was negative. The decline in yields affected the Partnerships short positioning in rates markets, with losses experienced notably in Euribor and SOFR contracts. In contrast, the Partnership experienced small gains in OAT yields. In July, the Partnerships fixed income trading was negative. The Partnerships fixed income losses were concentrated at the short end of the curve as increased rate cut expectations hurt positions in Euribor and SOFR. Further out the maturity spectrum, European bond positions generated the biggest losses, flipping from short to long in the process. In August, the Partnerships Fixed income losses were concentrated at the short end of the curve with the Partnership only just switching to net long amid the early August rout, which suffered later in the month. Performance was mixed further out the maturity spectrum, with long Japanese bonds generating notable declines. In September, the Partnerships fixed income trading generated gains. The Partnerships transition to long fixed income over the quarter was rewarded as yields declined across most regions and tenors. Top performers were Italian bonds, and a loss was incurred in Gilts. In October, the Partnerships fixed income trading resulted in losses. The Partnerships long fixed income positions across the curve experienced losses. Italian bonds and Euribor futures caused the greatest pain. Aggregate long positions transitioned to short as the month progressed, which was beneficial to the Partnerships short in UK gilts as the budget news at month end was digested negatively. In November, trading in fixed income was broadly flat, with gains from long Euribor positions were offset by losses from other short positions. In December, fixed income finished underwater as gains from shorts in all tenors along the US curve, were offset by losses in long positions in Italian and Korean government bonds.

The Partnerships equity trading in January was positive, due to gains from the Australian SPI 200 index. Nasdaq rose 11% after a -33% return in 2022, which did not benefit the Partnerships short position. Losses were incurred via short in the Korean Kospi. In February, the Partnerships equity trading was down due to long positions in the Australian SPI 200 and MSCI Emerging Markets indices. The trend continued in March as a long position in the FTSE 100 as well as a short in the Australian SPI 200 detracted from an equity standpoint. In April, the Partnerships long positions were generally profitable, along with its short positioning in the VIX volatility index, with long positions in MSCI Taiwan and Indias Nifty index generating offsetting losses. In May, the Partnerships equity trading was profitable, with the Nikkei as the most profitable, and the Partnerships position in the Taiwan MSCI also performing well. In June, front-end positions had the best returns, including SONIA and SOFR rates. Taiwans MSCI performed well, along with longs in Japanese stock indices, while losses were incurred in trading the Hang Seng and H-Shares Index. In July, equity trading incurred gains from longs in the S&P500, Italian and Taiwanese indices, overcoming losses from shorts in the Hang Seng and H-Shares Index. The Partnerships equity trading registered a loss in August, with shorts in the MSCI Singapore and MSCI EM indices generated a share of such losses. In September, the Taiwan MSCI index suffered a loss, while shorts in the MSCI EM and Hang Seng indices gained. The Partnership began October net short equities, generating gains from a short in the Korean Kospi index. A short in the Korean Kospi benefited when the index fell. In November, gains from the Partnerships short position in FTSE China A50 were offset by losses in its positions in the Korean Kospi and MSCI EM index. The Partnership ended the year in December with a net long positioning in stocks, bringing in gains as globally stocks finished the year strong.
In January, several of the Partnerships short positions, such as Italian and Australian government bond futures, flipped to long, incurring losses in the process. In February, the aggregate short position benefited, though the greatest beneficiaries were US instruments at the 3m, 2y, and 5-year points. Canadian bonds and the US 5 year treasury generated losses in fixed income trading in March, as all markets were contributed negatively. In April, the Partnerships small and varied positions in bonds detracted over the month as well. Losses continued into May as European bonds rallied sharply, leading to losses from a short Italian government bond position. The Partnership incurred positive returns in June with fixed income trading turning in the best performance over the month from shorts. US Treasuries out to the 10-year point performed best, though there were offsetting losses trading French and German bonds. In July, fixed income trading generated losses. Longs in the Italian 10 year bond detracted the most, while shorts in US and Canadian instruments attributed positively. Trading in fixed income was flat in August. Primarily short positions were beneficial in the first half of August, most notably in long-dated US treasuries which remained beneficial overall. Positioning in Italian 10-year government future bonds was long at the start of the month and was hurt by the inflation data in Europe. In September, the Partnerships short positions in fixed income, particularly in longer-dated US bonds and Italian bonds were profitable. A short in 3-month Sonia was the sole detractor. In October, the Partnerships bond exposure was short and stable, with Australian bonds topping the table. Short positions in European bonds from Italy and Germany contributed losses. In November, the Partnerships short positioning in bonds generated losses as market moves went against positioning. Losses were greatest across tenors in US futures, though there were also losses from shorts in Australia and Italy. In December, the Partnerships aggregate positioning in bonds moved from flat to long as the month progressed, rewarding the Partnership as yields compressed. Italian bonds performed best, while Australian and long-dated US instruments were slower to move from short to long and incurred small losses.
In January, the US dollar continued to fall from its peak in November 2022. This trend was picked up through long positions in commodity currencies, primarily the Mexican and Chilean pesos. Short positions in the Colombian peso and Israeli shekel against the US dollar generated losses. Trading in currencies generated a positive return for the month of February. However, a long position in the UK 10 year gilts generated a loss. The Partnership produced a gain from long US dollar currency crosses as the US dollar rose. Top performers in February included the Swiss franc and the Israeli shekel. Short dollar positions against the Euro and Singapore dollar generated losses. Currency trading in March was mixed, with an overall net loss. Short positions in safe-haven currencies, including the Swiss franc and Japanese yen, generated losses. A long Euro against the Norwegian krone, as well as a long Chilean peso against the US dollar generated modest gains. In April, the Partnerships FX trading saw profitable short positions in the Japanese yen against the Euro and British pound and losses from its mixed positions in the Swiss franc and Canadian dollar against the US dollar. The Partnerships FX trading turned in the strongest performance over the month of May, most notably long US dollar crosses as markets perceived possibly more rate rises from the Fed. The Chinese renminbi and Norwegian krone were standouts, while a trade in the Euro against the US dollar lost out as the position flipped from long to short. Trading in fixed income was also profitable for the Partnership, most notably from shorts in 3m Sonia and UK Gilts. In June, there was a positive return. Currency trading maintained strong, as the Partnerships long position in the Mexican Peso against the US dollar proved profitable. Longs in the British pound against the Japanese yen also generated gains. Losses were incurred in trades on the Australian dollar. However, in July, currencies detracted the most. Shorts in the Japanese yen against US dollar, Australian dollar and Euro crosses were the main culprits as the currency advanced. In general, long US dollar crosses such as those against the Swiss franc and South Korean won generated losses, while short crosses against commodity currencies such as the Mexican and Colombian pesos generated gains. In August, currency trading was beneficial, particularly from pairs featuring a long US dollar position. The Australian dollar fell relative to the US dollar, generating gains for the Partnership. A long position in the Brazilian real generated losses. The Partnership saw a mix of gains and losses in the month of September, with gains from a short Swiss franc position against the US dollar and offsetting losses from long positions in the Sterling against the Japanese Yen, the Australian dollar and US dollar. In October, the Partnerships broad long US dollar position against a wide basket of currencies, including the Israeli Shekel, the Canadian Dollar and the Japanese Yen was profitable. Long positions in emerging market currencies such as the Mexican and Colombian Pesos detracted from the Partnerships gains. November saw losses in the Partnerships net long US dollar position against currencies such as the South Korean won, Swiss franc, and Japanese yen. Short positions in the US dollar against commodity currencies, for example, the Brazilian real and Mexican peso, provided small offsetting gains. The year ended with a slight downturn in currencies, with losses driven by pairs with long US dollar crosses. This affected the Japanese yen in particular. Longer positions in commodity currencies, such as the Colombian pesos, against the US dollar were profitable.

In January, the Partnership generated a positive return with gains in commodities. Profits in commodity trading originated mostly from energy and metals, specifically Chinas long copper and gold positions. The price of natural gas fell on both sides of the Atlantic, and profited the Partnership. Short positions in coffee and platinum generated small losses. In February, the Partnership suffered losses from commodities. Losses in commodities were driven by metals, most notably longs in precious metals, and gold. Losses from generally short positions in the oil complex led to an overall negative return in energies. Gains were generated in agricultural trading, led by a short in wheat. In March, a silver position generated a loss as it flipped from short to long. Prices of EUA carbon emissions fell, along with risk assets, generating losses for the Partnerships long position. Sugar trading was beneficial, as prices hit a 10-year high. Trading in commodities was mixed in April. Agricultural, in particular a long position in sugar, were the standout, while volatile oil prices were detrimental to the Partnerships positions in oil. Trading in metals was positive, with profits generated from a short zinc position, while a long in copper detracted. In May, all sub-components of the Partnerships commodities trading were beneficial. Prices across the soy complex fell, benefiting the Partnerships short positioning, while a long sugar position lost out as prices fell. Energies notched up a small gain in aggregate, benefiting from a US natural gas short. Within metals, long precious positions detracted from the Partnerships returns. In June, the Partnership suffered losses, primarily due to energies. Metals and agricultural trading also experienced difficulties, with copper and soybean prices in particular suffering significant reversals. Gains were accrued from a cocoa long. Commodity markets were mixed in July. Metals trading generated losses, with Aluminum in particular bouncing off a multi-month low. Trading in agricultural was flat, with gains from long cocoa positions offsetting losses from short corn. Energies represented the sole gain as longs in the crude complex generated gains for the Partnership. Commodity trading was difficult in August, as observed in metals, where silver positioning whipsawed, and US natural gas prices were volatile. However, gains were made in agricultural through cocoa longs and wheat shorts. By September, commodity gains were dominated by long oil positions, both Brent and WTI crude. Metals was slightly lower, as losses in aluminum and zinc shorts outweighed gains short nickel positions. Within agricultural, long sugar positions generated a gain while long cocoa lost out. Commodities trading was difficult in all sub-sectors in October. Oil was volatile, leading to losses from long positions. Gold spiked, reversing its multi-month downward trend. In the aggregate, there were losses in agricultural commodities, but the standout positive performer was a long in cocoa. In November, short US natural gas positions profited along with the Partnerships long position in cocoa, though offsetting losses came from a short position in copper. Commodities trading finished the year in December with losses. Metals were the worst performer, with silver being the worst individual performer. Trading in agricultural was broadly flat.
Credit spreads narrowed over the month of January, benefiting short protection CDS positions in US investment-grade and European higher-yielding indices. There were no offsetting profitable fixed income positions in January. The Partnership generated a positive return with gains from credit. Fixed income prices rallied in January on expectations that central banks may ease their rate-hiking plans. In February, trading in credit suffered losses in US CDS indices overcoming smaller gains in European indices. Risk-on positions in CDS indices were hurt in March, with European and US investment-grade companies in the crosshairs. A decline of 61bp on 13th of March for US 2-year Treasury yields was the largest decline in over 40 years and was detrimental to a short in the instrument and indeed all other tenors of US treasuries traded by the Partnership. Credit trading was slightly positive for the Partnership in April. In May, the Partnership generated a positive return net of fees with gains generated across all asset classes. However, the Partnerships credit trading was flat for May. In June, the credit trading generated a positive return. Credit spreads tightened, resulting in small gains for the Partnerships long credit positions. In July, long credit positions in Europe across both investment grade and high-yield names, implemented via short CDS indices, generated losses. July was positive for the Partnerships risk assets, with key US indices delivering their fifth successive positive month. Long credit positions generated losses in August and September. Credit positions flipped from long to short as October progressed, leading to a loss in aggregate, with European investment-grade and crossover indices suffering most. In November, the Partnerships credit position migrated from short to long early in the month, and generated net gains, primarily in European investment grade and high-yield indices. The Partnerships long credit positioning in December generated gains.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Introduction
Past Results Are Not Necessarily Indicative of Future Performance
The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Partnerships main line of business.
Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Partnerships open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow. The Partnerships market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects among the Partnerships open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.
The Partnership can rapidly acquire and/or liquidate both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Partnerships past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.
Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnerships speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Partnerships experience to date (i.e., risk of ruin). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification included in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Partnerships losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnerships attempts to manage its market risk.
18
Materiality, as used in this section Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and the potential losses caused by such movements, taking into account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Partnerships market sensitive instruments.
Quantifying the Partnerships Trading Value at Risk
Quantitative Forward-Looking Statements
The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partnerships market risk exposures contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). All quantitative disclosures in this section are deemed to be forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor, except for statements of historical fact.
The Partnerships risk exposure in the various market sectors traded by the General Partner is quantified below in terms of Value at Risk. Due to the Partnerships mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Partnerships open positions is directly reflected in the Partnerships earnings (realized or unrealized) and cash flow (at least in the case of exchange-traded contracts in which profits and losses on open positions are settled daily through variation margin).
For regulatory purposes, initial margin requirements have been used by the Partnership as the measure of its Value at Risk. For trading and internal risk monitoring purposes, a different approach based on simulated market movements is used. Initial margin requirements include a credit risk factor and a maintenance margin factor and thus overstate the maximum one-day loss reflected by the maintenance margin requirement by the amount of the credit risk factor used in setting initial margin requirements. Maintenance margin requirements are set by dealers, exchanges and OTC clearing counterparties to equal or exceed 95-99% of the maximum one-day losses in the fair value of any given contract incurred during the time period over which historical price fluctuations are researched for purposes of establishing margin levels. The maintenance margin levels are established by dealers, exchanges and OTC clearing counterparties using historical price studies as well as an assessment of current market volatility (including the implied volatility of the options on a given futures contract) and economic fundamentals to provide a probabilistic estimate of the maximum expected near-term one-day price fluctuation.
In the case of market sensitive instruments that are not exchange traded (almost exclusively currencies in the case of the Partnership), dealers margins have been used as Value at Risk.
The fair value of the Partnerships futures and forward positions does not have any optionality component. However, the General Partner may also trade commodity options on behalf of the Partnership. The Value at Risk associated with options would be reflected in the margin requirement attributable to the instrument underlying each option.
In quantifying the Partnerships Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed. Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have simply been aggregated to determine each trading categorys aggregate Value at Risk. The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Partnerships positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.
The Partnerships Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors
The following table indicates the average, highest and lowest amount of trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnerships open positions by market category for the year ended December 31, 2025. During 2025, the Partnerships average quarter-end capitalization was $61,644,716.

Average, highest and lowest Value at Risk amounts relate to the quarter-end amounts during the fiscal year. Average capitalization is the average of the Partnerships capitalization at the end of each quarter during the fiscal year 2024.
Material Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk
The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership is typically many times the applicable initial or maintenance margin requirement (maintenance margin requirements generally ranging between approximately 1% and 10% of contract face value) as well as many times the capitalization of the Partnership. The magnitude of the Partnerships open positions creates a risk of ruin not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain market conditions unusual, but historically recurring from time to time could cause the Partnership to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk table as well as the past performance of the Partnership gives no indication of this risk of ruin.
Non-Trading Risk
The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash balances not needed for margin. However, these balances (as well as any market risk they represent) are immaterial.
The Partnership also has non-trading cash flow risk as a result of holding a substantial portion of its assets in U.S. government securities (Treasury Bills) and interest-bearing bank accounts. These cash and cash equivalents are placed with highly rated counterparties with a priority placed on preservation of capital and reputation (i.e., appropriate level of credit risk, market risk and reputation risk) and liquidity (i.e., appropriate level of liquidity risk).
Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures
The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnerships market risk exposures except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the General Partner manages the Partnerships primary market risk exposures constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Partnerships primary market risk exposures as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner for managing such exposures are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Partnerships risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation and many other factors could result in material losses as well as in material changes to the risk exposures and the risk management strategies of the Partnership. There can be no assurance that the Partnerships current market exposure and/or risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such strategies will be effective in either the short- or long-term. Investors must be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Partnership.
The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Partnership as of December 31, 2025, by market sector.
Fixed Income. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the sovereign bond futures positions held by the Partnership and indirectly the value of its stock index and currency positions. Interest rate movements in one country as well as relative interest rate movements between countries may materially impact the Partnerships profitability. The Partnerships primary interest rate exposure is to interest rate fluctuations in Germany, Australia, Japan, United Kingdom and Canada. However, the Partnership also may take positions in futures contracts on the government debt of smaller nations. The General Partner anticipates that G-7 interest rates, both long-term and short-term, will remain the primary market exposure of the Partnership for the foreseeable future.
20
Currencies. Exchange rate risk is the principal market exposure of the Partnership. The Partnerships currency exposure is to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily fluctuations which disrupt the historical pricing relationships between different currencies and currency pairs. These fluctuations are influenced by interest rate changes as well as political and general economic conditions. The Partnership trades in a large number of currencies, including cross-rates i.e., positions between two currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As of December 31, 2025, the Partnerships primary currency exposures were in the U.S. Dollar versus the Japanese Yen, Indian Rupee, Israeli Shekel, Chilean Peso, and Mexican Peso.
Stock Indices. The Partnerships primary equity exposure, through stock index futures, is to equity price risk in the G-20 countries. As of December 31, 2025, the Partnerships primary exposures were in the Swiss Market index, FTSE Italia All Share index, MSCI EAFE index, and Tokyo Stock Exchange index. The Partnership is primarily exposed to the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the major North American, European and Asian indices. (Static markets would not cause major market changes but could make it difficult for the Partnership to avoid numerous small losses.)
Metals. The AHL Diversified Program used for the Partnership trades precious and base metals. As of December 31, 2025, the Partnerships primary metals market exposures were in Gold, Platinum, Silver, and Copper.
Agricultural. The Partnerships has exposure to agricultural price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. Sugar, Cocoa, Wheat, and Coffee accounted for the substantial bulk of the Partnerships commodities exposure as of December 31, 2025.
Energy. The Partnerships primary energy market exposure is to gas and oil price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East and economic conditions worldwide. Energy prices are volatile and substantial profits and losses have been and are expected to continue to be experienced in this market. As of December 31, 2025, the main exposures were in in US Natural Gas, Crude Oil, Carbon Emissions, and European Natural Gas.
Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure
The following were the only non-trading risk exposures of the Partnership as of December 31, 2025.
Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnerships primary foreign currency balance is in the Japanese Yen. The Partnership controls the non-trading risk of these balances by regularly converting these balances back into U.S. dollars (no less frequently than twice a month).
Cash Positions. The Partnerships only market exposure in instruments held other than for trading is in its cash portfolio. The Partnership holds only cash in U.S. Treasury Bills and interest-bearing bank accounts. This cash is placed with highly rated counterparties with a priority placed on preservation of capital and reputation (i.e., appropriate level of credit risk, market risk and reputation risk) and liquidity (i.e., appropriate level of liquidity risk) with durations no longer than 1 year.
Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure
Risk management is an essential component of AHLs investment management process. AHL has put in place a risk management framework which is designed to identify, monitor and mitigate the portfolio, operational and outsourcing risks relevant to its operations. AHLs risk management framework is part of, and is supported by, the overarching risk management framework of its parent company, Man Group plc. Key principles of AHLs risk management framework include the segregation of functions and duties where material conflicts of interest may arise and having an appropriate degree of independent and senior management oversight of business activities. As part of this independent oversight, AHLs activities are subject to regular review by an internal audit function.
The AHL Diversified Program employs a systematic, statistically based investment strategy that is designed to identify and capitalize on trends and other inefficiencies in markets around the world. Trading signals are generated and executed via a finely tuned trading and implementation infrastructure. This process is quantitative, meaning that investment decisions are entirely driven by mathematical models based on quantitative analysis of historical relationships. It is underpinned by rigorous risk control, ongoing research, diversification and the constant quest for efficiency. Portfolio risk management consists primarily of monitoring risk measures and ensuring the systems remain within prescribed limits. The major risk monitoring measures and focus areas include value-at-risk, stress testing, implied volatility, leverage, margin-to-equity ratios and net exposures to sectors and different currencies.
Diversification is also a key feature of AHLs risk management, as well as its investment process. As well as emphasizing sector and market diversification, the AHL Diversified Program has been constructed to achieve diversification by combining various investment strategies. The AHL Diversified Program trades approximately 250 markets and these markets may be accessed directly or indirectly and include, without limitation, stock indices, bonds, currencies, short-term interest rates, energies, credits, metals and agricultural. Another important aspect of diversification is the fact that the models generate signals across different timeframes, ranging from two to three days to several months. In line with the principle of diversification, the approach to portfolio construction and asset allocation is premised on the importance of deploying investment capital across the full range of sectors and markets. Particular attention is paid to correlation of markets and sectors, expected returns, trading costs and market liquidity. Portfolios are regularly reviewed and, when necessary, adjusted to reflect changes in these factors. AHL also has a systematic process for adjusting its market risk exposure in real time to reflect changes in the volatility, a measure of risk, of individual markets.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
None.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
The General Partner, with the participation of the General Partners Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnerships disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal year for which this Annual Report on Form 10-K is being filed. Based on such evaluation, the General Partners Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Partnerships disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires the General Partner to evaluate annually the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year, and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting in all annual reports. There were no significant changes in the General Partners internal control
22
over financial reporting during the three-month period ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The General Partner is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the financial reporting of the Partnership. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a companys principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a companys board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The General Partners internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements of the Partnership in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Partnership are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the General Partner; and
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnerships assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The management of the General Partner assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting with respect to the Partnership as of December 31, 2025. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control Integrated Framework (2013). Based on its assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, the General Partners internal control over financial reporting with respect to the Partnership is effective based on those criteria.
There were no significant changes in the General Partners internal controls with respect to the Partnership or in other factors applicable to the Partnership that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.
Item 9B. Other Information.

(b)

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Partners of Man-AHL Diversified I L.P.:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Man-AHL Diversified I L.P. (the Partnership) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related statements of operations, changes in partners capital, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Partnership as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations, the changes in its partners capital, and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnership's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Partnership in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnerships internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, by correspondence with the custodian and transfer agent. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

ORGANIZATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP
Man-AHL Diversified I L.P. (a Delaware Limited Partnership) (the Partnership) was organized in September 1997 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, and commenced operations on April 3, 1998, for the purpose of engaging in the speculative trading of futures and forward contracts and related instruments. The Partnership is a feeder fund in a master-feeder structure, whereby the Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. (the Trading Company). Man Investments (USA) Corp. (the General Partner), a Delaware corporation, serves as the Partnerships General Partner. The General Partner is a subsidiary of Man Group plc, a Jersey public limited company that is listed on the London Stock Exchange. The General Partner oversees the operations and management of the Partnership.
AHL Partners LLP (the Advisor), a limited liability partnership established in England and Wales, acts as trading advisor to the Partnership. The Advisor is an affiliate of the General Partner and a subsidiary of Man Group plc. The Advisor is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as a commodity trading adviser and commodity pool operator and is a member of the National Futures Association (NFA) in such capacities, in addition to registration with the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom.
Man Investments Limited, a United Kingdom private limited company that is part of Man Group plc, is the managing member of the Advisor, and Man Investments Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation that is part of Man Group plc, is the sole shareholder of the General Partner.
The Partnerships units are distributed through the Partnership or other selling agents, including Man Investments Inc. (MII), an affiliate of the Advisor and General Partner. MII is a registered broker-dealer and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (FINRA). MII serves as the placement agent for all classes of units of the Partnership.
The Partnership filed a registration statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), which became effective in March 2008. The Partnerships units are not, however, registered for sale through a public offering, and the General Partner does not intend to cause them to be so registered.
The Partnership offers two classes of units of limited partnership interests; Class A units are generally offered and Class B units are offered to employee benefit plans, individual retirement accounts and other retirement plans and accounts. The two classes of units are identical to each other except that Class B units may be purchased, transferred, held and redeemed at a minimum amount of $10,000. Within Class A and Class B, units are issued in two separate series. They are Class A Series 1, Class A Series 2, Class B Series 1 and Class B Series 2. No Class B Series 2 units were in issue as at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Bank of New York Mellon serves as the administrator to the Partnership.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Partnership prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The General Partner has evaluated the structure, objectives and activities of the Partnership and the Trading Company and determined that the Partnership and the Trading Company meet the characteristics of an investment company. As such, these financial statements have applied the guidance as set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statements.
Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent accounting pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Management evaluated this ASU 2023-09 and has concluded that there was no impact on the Partnerships financial statements.
Investment in Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. The Partnerships investment in the Trading Company is valued at the fair value of the Partnerships proportionate interest in the partners capital of the Trading Company. The fair value of the Partnerships investment in the Trading Company approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Statements of Financial Condition. The Partnership records its proportionate share of the Trading Companys income, expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses.

(A Delaware Limited Partnership) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. In addition, the Partnership accrues its own expenses. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Trading Company. Attached are the financial statements of the Trading Company, including the condensed schedules of investments, which are an integral part of these financial statements. Valuation of investments held by the Trading Company is discussed in the Trading Companys notes to financial statements.
As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Partnership owned 1,984.83 and 2,679.90 units, respectively, of the Trading Company. The Partnerships aggregate ownership percentage of the Trading Company as at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 45.32% and 44.95%, respectively.
The Partnership is able to redeem its investment from the Trading Company on a monthly basis. As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Partnership could redeem its investment without restriction at the month-end net asset value of the Trading Company.
Due from Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. The amounts Due from Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. represent redemption requests made by the Partnership relating to its investment in the Trading Company. The requests have been received and recorded by the Trading Company but the proceeds have not been received by the Partnership. These amounts are ultimately due to limited partners of the Partnership as redemptions payable.
Expenses The Advisor earns a monthly management fee in an amount equal to 0.1667% (2% annually) of the Partnerships month-end Net Asset Value, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement (the Agreement). In addition, the General Partner earns a monthly general partner fee in an amount equal to 0.0833% (1% annually) of the month-end Net Asset Value of Class A Series 1 and Class B Series 1 units. The general partner fee is included in management fees in the Statements of Operations.
The Advisor also earns a monthly incentive fee equal to 20% of any Net New Appreciation, as defined in the Agreement, achieved by the Partnership, with new appreciation generally tracked on a class-by-class basis. The incentive fee is retained by the Advisor even if subsequent losses are incurred; however, no subsequent incentive fees will be paid to the Advisor until any such trading losses are recouped by the Partnership. Because the incentive fees are paid on the Net New Appreciation of the Partnership as a whole, it is possible that certain Limited Partners may experience increases in the Net Asset Value of their units while paying no incentive fees on such increases in the Net Asset Value of such units as a result of the timing of the purchase of units. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, no incentive fees were earned by the Advisor.
The Partnership pays a monthly servicing fee to MII in an amount equal to 0.0833% (1.00% annually) of the month-end Net Asset Value of Class A Series 1 and Class B Series 1 units and 0.0625% (0.75% annually) of the month-end Net Asset Value of Class A Series 2 and Class B Series 2 units.
Revenue recognition Income and expense are recognized on an accrual basis in the period in which they are incurred.
Derivative contracts The Partnerships operating activities involve trading, indirectly through its investment in the Trading Company, in derivative contracts that involve varying degrees of market and credit risk. With respect to the Partnerships investment in the Trading Company, the Partnership has limited liability, and, therefore, its maximum exposure to either market or credit loss is limited to the carrying value of its investment in the Trading Company, as set forth in the Statements of Financial Condition.
Net income/(loss) per unit Net income/(loss) per unit of Class A Series 1, Class A Series 2, or Class B Series 1, partnership interest is equal to the net income/(loss) per class divided by the weighted average number of units outstanding per class. Weighted average number of units outstanding is the average of the units outstanding for each day during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Income taxes The Partnership is not subject to federal, state, or local income tax. Such taxes are the liabilities of the individual partners and the amounts thereof will vary depending on the individual situation of each partner. Accordingly, there is no provision for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. ASC 740, Income Taxes, defines how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements and is applied to all open tax years. The Partnership has evaluated tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Partnerships tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Based on this analysis of all tax jurisdictions and all open tax years subject to examination, there were no material tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not-threshold. Therefore, no tax expense, including interest or penalties, was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. To the extent that the Partnership records interest and penalties, they would be included in interest expense and other expenses, respectively, in the Statements of Operations. The following is the major tax jurisdiction for the Trading Company and the earliest tax year subject to examination: United States 2022.
Other income Other income included in the Statements of Operations includes the proceeds received by the Trading Company relating to a class action award for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Comparative information Certain prior year figures in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

The Trading Company identified and corrected an over-accrued amount for professional fees which resulted in a credit of $87,574 for the Partnership recorded in the year ended December 31, 2025. The Partnership identified and corrected an under-accrued amount for professional fees which resulted in a debit of $141,064 recorded in the year ended December 31, 2025. The amount of the correction was determined to be immaterial. Without consideration of this correction, the ratio of expense to average partners capital would have been 5.68% for Class A Series 1, 4.51% for Class A Series 2 and 5.73% for Class B Series 1 for the year ended December 31, 2025.
3.
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits and losses of the Partnership in proportion to the amount of capital held by each partner. However, no limited partner is liable for obligations of the Partnership in excess of its capital subscription and net profits or losses, if any.
The Partnerships units are continuously offered as of the first business day of each month at Net Asset Value, as defined in the Agreement. Limited partners may redeem any or all of their units as of the end of any month at Net Asset Value per unit on 10 days prior written notice to the General Partner. The Partnership will be dissolved on December 31, 2037, or upon the occurrence of certain events, as specified in the Agreement.
The General Partner is required to make and maintain a general partner investment in the Partnership in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of 1.01% of the net aggregate capital subscriptions of all partners, or $500,000.
Distributions (other than redemptions of units), if any, are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of the General Partner. No distributions were declared or paid during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Partnership is liable for all costs associated with executing its business strategy. These costs include, but are not limited to, expenses associated with operations of the Partnership, such as management and incentive fees and other operating expenses, such as legal, audit, and tax return preparation fees.
4.
FINANCIAL GUARANTEES
The Partnership enters into administrative and other professional service contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Partnerships maximum exposure under these arrangements is not known; however, the Partnership has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Partners of Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P.:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. (the Trading Company), including the condensed schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related statements of operations, changes in partners capital, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Trading Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations, the changes in its partners capital, and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trading Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Trading Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Trading Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trading Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trading Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matters
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

# NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
|

1.
ORGANIZATION OF THE TRADING COMPANY
Man-AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. (a Delaware Limited Partnership) (the Trading Company) was organized in November 1997 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, and commenced operations on April 3, 1998, for the purpose of engaging in the speculative trading of futures and forward contracts and related instruments. Man Investments (USA) Corp. (the General Partner), a Delaware corporation, serves as the Trading Companys general partner. The General Partner is a subsidiary of Man Group plc, a Jersey public limited company that is listed on the London Stock Exchange. The General Partner oversees the operations and management of the Trading Company.
The Trading Company was formed to serve as a trading vehicle for certain limited partnerships sponsored by the General Partner in a master-feeder structure. The limited partners, Man-AHL Diversified I L.P. and Man-AHL Diversified II L.P., are limited partnerships whose general partner is the General Partner.
AHL Partners LLP (the Advisor), a limited liability partnership established in England and Wales, acts as the trading advisor to the Trading Company. The Advisor is an affiliate of the General Partner and a subsidiary of Man Group plc. The Advisor is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as a commodity trading adviser and commodity pool operator and is a member of the National Futures Association (NFA) in such capacities, in addition to registration with the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom.
Man Investments Limited, a United Kingdom private limited company that is part of Man Group plc, is the managing member of the Advisor, and Man Investments Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation that is part of Man Group plc, is the sole shareholder of the General Partner.
The Bank of New York Mellon serves as the administrator to the Trading Company.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Trading Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The General Partner has evaluated the structure, objectives and activities of the Trading Company and determined that the Trading Company meets the characteristics of an investment company. As such, these financial statements have applied the guidance as set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statements.
Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the General Partner to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities (and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities) at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent accounting pronouncements In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09), which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Management evaluated this ASU 2023-09 and has concluded that there was no impact on the Trading Companys financial statements.
Due from brokers Due from brokers may consist of balances due from BNP Paribas (BNP), Citigroup, N.A. (Citi), Credit Suisse Securities (USA) (CS), J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (JPM), Natwest f/k/a Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS), Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch (DB), Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (ML), HSBC ("HSBC") and Goldman Sachs (GS) (the Brokers). Due from brokers may consist of balances receivable from its Brokers, as well as The Bank of New York Mellon relating to securities or contracts, the Trading Company has sold or entered into, but have not yet settled as at December 31, 2025. In general, the brokers pay the Trading Company interest monthly, based on agreed upon rates, on the Trading Companys average daily balance.
Restricted cash Restricted cash is subject to a legal or contractual restriction by third parties as well as a restriction as to withdrawal or use, including restrictions that require the funds to be used for a specified purpose and restrictions that limit the purpose for which the funds can be used. The Trading Company considers cash held at counterparties for derivative contracts to be restricted cash.

Realized gains and losses from periodic payments and settlements and unrealized changes in fair values are included in realized gains/(losses) and change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on contracts/agreements, respectively, in the Statements of Operations. All trading activities are accounted for on a trade-date basis. The cost of securities sold is accounted for on a first in first out basis.
Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective interest method and included within interest income in the Statements of Operations.
Derivative contracts In the normal course of business, the Trading Company enters into derivative contracts (derivatives) for trading purposes. Derivatives traded by the Trading Company include futures and forward contracts and swap agreements. The Trading Company records derivatives at fair value. Futures contracts, which are traded on a national exchange, are valued at the close price as of the valuation day, or if no sale occurred on such day, at the close price on the most recent date on which a sale occurred. Forward contracts, which are not traded on a national exchange, are valued at fair value using independent pricing services, which mainly use market observable inputs in their valuations. Swaps are contractual agreements between two parties to exchange streams of payments over time based on specified notional amounts. The Trading Companys swap agreements may consist of interest rate swaps and credit default swaps. Swap agreements are valued at fair value using independent pricing services. Upfront premiums paid or received by the Trading Company upon entering a credit default swap agreement are treated as part of the cost/proceeds of the credit default swap agreement and are reflected as part of net premiums paid or received in the Statements of Financial Condition. Upon termination of a credit default swap transaction, the amount included in the cost is reversed and becomes part of realized gain or loss.
Foreign currency All assets and liabilities of the Trading Company denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the mean between the bid and ask market rates for such currencies on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of foreign investments are converted at the prevailing rate of exchange on the respective date of such transactions. The Trading Company does not isolate that portion of realized gains and losses on investments which is due to changes in foreign exchange rates from that which is due to changes in market prices of the investments. Such changes are included with the net realized gains or losses on trading activities.
Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include unrestricted cash, short-term interest-bearing money market accounts and U.S. government securities with original maturities of 90 days or less, held with The Bank of New York Mellon. As at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Trading Company maintains cash balances with The Bank of New York Mellon. As at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Trading Company held foreign cash balances of $14 and $1,014,194 with a cost of $12 and $1,014,194, respectively, which are included in cash and cash equivalents. As at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Trading Company did not hold any U.S. Treasury Bills in cash and cash equivalents.
Investments in securities Investments in Securities include U.S. government securities with original maturities of more than 90 days, held with The Bank of New York Mellon.

Income Taxes The Trading Company is treated as a partnership for tax purposes and therefore is not subject to federal, state, or local income tax. Such taxes are the liabilities of the individual partners and the amounts thereof will vary depending on the individual situation of each partner. Accordingly, there is no provision for income taxes in the accompanying financial statements. ASC 740, Income Taxes, defines how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented, and disclosed in the financial statements and is applied to all open tax years. The Trading Company has evaluated tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Trading Companys tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more likely than not to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Based on this analysis of all tax jurisdictions and all open tax years subject to examination, there were no material tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not-threshold. Therefore, no tax expense, including interest or penalties, was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. To the extent that the Trading Company records interest and penalties, they would be included in interest expense and other expenses, respectively, in the Statements of Operations. The following is the major tax jurisdiction for the Trading Company and the earliest tax year subject to examination: United States 2022.
Net income/(loss) per unit Net income/(loss) per unit of partnership interest is equal to the net income/(loss) divided by the weighted average number of units outstanding. Weighted average number of units outstanding is the average of the units outstanding for each day during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Other Income Other income included in the Statements of Operations includes the proceeds received by the Trading Company relating to a class action award for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023.
Comparative Information Certain prior year figures in the financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
The Trading Company identified and corrected an over-accrued amount for professional fees which resulted in a credit of $195,125 recorded in the year ended December 31, 2025. The amount of the correction was determined to be immaterial. Without consideration of this correction, the ratio of expense to average partners capital would have been 0.74% for the year ended December 31, 2025.

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
The General Partner and limited partners share in the profits and losses of the Trading Company in proportion to the amount of capital held by each partner. However, no limited partner is liable for obligations of the Trading Company in excess of its capital contribution and net profits or losses, if any. The General Partner owned no direct interest in the Trading Company during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Distributions (other than redemption of units), if any, are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of the General Partner. No distributions were declared or paid during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Partner contributions occur as of the first day of any month at the opening net asset value. Limited partners may redeem any or all of their units as of the end of any month at the net asset value per unit with 10 days prior written notice to the General Partner. The General Partner may suspend redemptions of units of the Trading Company if the Trading Companys ability to withdraw capital from any investment is restricted. The Trading Company will be dissolved on December 31, 2037, or upon the occurrence of certain events, as specified in the Trading Companys limited partnership agreement.
4.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Trading Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value of the Trading Companys assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Statements of Financial Condition.
The inputs used to determine the fair value of the Trading Companys investments are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 investments with significant market observable inputs
Level 3 investments with significant unobservable inputs, which may include the Trading Companys own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments
Futures contracts are valued based on end of day quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized as Level 1 investments in the fair value hierarchy. Treasury bills, forward contracts and swap agreements are valued at fair value using independent pricing services,

which use market observable inputs in their valuations and are categorized as Level 2 investments in the fair value hierarchy. As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Trading Company did not have any positions categorized as Level 3 investments in the fair value hierarchy. The following is a summary categorization as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, of the Trading Companys investments based on the level of inputs utilized in determining the value of such investments:

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
The Trading Company seeks to achieve its investment objective by participation in the AHL Diversified Program directed on behalf of the Trading Company by the Advisor. The AHL Diversified Program is a price trend-following trading system, entirely quantitative in nature, and implements trading positions on the basis of statistical analyses of past price histories. The objective of the AHL Diversified Program is to deliver substantial capital growth for commensurate levels of volatility over the medium term, independent of the movement of the stock and bond markets, through the speculative trading, directly and indirectly, of physical commodities, futures contracts, spot and forward contracts, swaps and options on the foregoing, exchanges of futures for physical transactions and other investments on domestic and international exchanges and markets (including the interbank and over-the-counter markets (OTC)). The

# NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
|
|
AHL Diversified Program trades globally in several market sectors, including, without limitation, currencies, bonds, energies, stock indices, interest rates, metals and agriculture.
All of the strategies and systems of the AHL Diversified Program are designed to target defined volatility levels rather than returns, and the investment process is underpinned by computer-supported analytical instruments and disciplined real-time risk and management information systems. A proprietary risk measurement method similar to the industry standard value-at-risk helps ensure that the rule-based decisions that drive the investment process remain within pre-defined risk parameters. Margin-to-equity ratios are monitored daily, and the level of exposure in each market is quantifiable at any time and is adjusted in accordance with market volatility. Market correlation is closely monitored to prevent over-concentration of risk and ensure optimal portfolio weightings. Market liquidity is examined with the objective of ensuring that the Trading Company will be able to initiate and close out trades as indicated by AHL Diversified Programs systems at market prices, while brokerage selection and trade execution are continually monitored with the objective of ensuring quality market access.
Futures contracts, forward contracts and swap agreements are recorded on the trade date. Upon entering into futures contracts, forward contracts and swap agreements, the Trading Company may be required to deposit cash or collateral with the brokers. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are matured or closed. Unrealized gains or losses on open contracts and agreements (the difference between contract trade price and fair value) are reported in the Statements of Financial Condition.
Interest rate swaps relate to agreements taken out by the Trading Company with major brokers in which the Trading Company either receives or pays a floating rate of interest in return for paying or receiving, respectively, a fixed rate of interest, on the same notional amount for a specified period of time. In the normal course of business, the payment flows are netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to the other. Changes in the value of the interest rate swap agreements and amounts received or paid in connection with those changes, are recognized as realized trading gains/(losses) on closed contracts/agreements in the Statements of Operations. The risks related to trading in interest rate swaps include changes in market value and the possible inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligations under the agreement. As at December 31, 2025, the Trading Company does not hold any open interest rate swap agreements.
The Trading Company may enter into short sales. In order to facilitate a short sale, the Trading Company borrows the applicable financial instrument from a broker or counterparty and delivers it to a buyer. A short sale by the Trading Company creates an obligation on the part of the Trading Company to thereafter purchase the financial instrument in the market at the prevailing market price and deliver it to the broker or counterparty from which it was borrowed. The Trading Company is exposed to the risk of loss to the extent that the price of a financial instrument sold short by the Trading Company increases from the time the Trading Company borrows the financial instrument to the time the Trading Company purchases it in the market to satisfy the Trading Companys delivery obligation. Consequently, the ultimate cost to the Trading Company to acquire a financial instrument sold short may exceed the amount recognized in financial statements.
The Trading Company may enter into credit default swap agreements to provide a measure of protection against the default of an issuer (as buyer of protection) and/or gain credit exposure to an issuer to which it is not otherwise exposed (as seller of protection). Credit default swaps are agreements in which one party pays fixed periodic payments to a counterparty in consideration for a guarantee from the counterparty to make a specific payment should a negative credit event take place (e.g. default, bankruptcy, debt restructuring, etc.). The Trading Company may either buy or sell (write) credit default swaps. As a buyer, upon the occurrence of a specified negative credit event, the Trading Company will either receive from the seller an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced security or underlying securities comprising an index or receive a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the agreed upon recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising an index. As a seller (writer), upon the occurrence of a specified negative credit event, the Trading Company will either pay the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced security or underlying securities comprising an index or pay a net settlement of cash equal to the notional amount of the swap less the agreed upon recovery value of the security or underlying securities comprising an index. In the event of default by the counterparty, the Trading Company may recover amounts paid under the agreement either partially or in total by offsetting any payables and/or receivables with collateral held or pledged. The counterparty risk for centrally-cleared credit default swap agreements is generally lower than for credit default swap agreements not centrally-cleared. However, there can be no assurance that the clearing organization, or its members, will satisfy its obligations to the Trading Company.
These periodic payments received or made under swap agreements by the Trading Company are included in net realized trading gains/(losses) on closed contracts/agreements in the Statements of Operations. When the swap is terminated, the Trading Company will record a realized gain/(loss) equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) closing the transaction and the Trading Companys basis in the contract, if any.
Swap transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and market risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty or the clearing organization to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of the contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates and/or market values associated with these transactions.

The notional amount represents the maximum potential pay out that the Trading Company could be required to make if a credit event were to occur under each agreement. The maximum payout amount may be offset by the subsequent sale, if any, of assets obtained via the execution of a payout event, upfront fees received upon entering into the contracts, or net amounts received from the settlement of offsetting purchased protection in credit default swap contracts entered into by the Trading Company for the same reference entity or entities. As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, all credit default swap contracts entered into by the Trading Company are on indices. The credit spread is generally indicative of the status of the underlying risk of default by the applicable reference entity or index and is likely to be different than the contractual spread on the credit default swap. Higher credit spreads are indicative of a higher likelihood of non-performance by the underlying reference entity.

The trading activity of open future, forward and swap contracts as at December 31, 2025 and 2024 is indicative of the trading activity throughout the respective years.
The Trading Company trades derivative financial instruments that involve varying degrees of market and credit risk. Market risks may arise from unfavorable changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates, or the fair values of the instruments underlying the contracts. All contracts are stated at fair value, and changes in those values are reflected in the net change in unrealized trading appreciation/(depreciation) on open contracts/agreements in the Statements of Operations. Credit risk arises from the potential inability of counterparties to perform in accordance with the terms of a contract. The credit risk for OTC derivative contracts is limited to the net unrealized gain plus any collateral posted net of unrealized losses or upfront fees posted, if any, for each counterparty for which a netting agreement exists and is included in the Statements of Financial Condition. Upfront fees are listed in the Statements of Financial Condition as net premiums paid/received on credit default swap agreements and are shown net by counterparty for which a netting agreement exists. Counterparty relationships are governed by various contracts. These contracts can be based on industry standard agreements, such as International Swap and Derivatives Association agreements for OTC contracts. These agreements set forth each partys basic rights, responsibilities, and duties. These agreements also contain information regarding financial terms and conditions, as well as termination and events of default provisions. Certain agreements contain provisions that require the Trading Company to post additional collateral upon the occurrence of specific credit risk related events or upon notice from the counterparty. As the Trading Companys trading strategies are dependent upon the existence of these agreements, the Trading Companys counterparties usually have multiple specified events under which they can terminate individual transactions or the entire agreement. These are most commonly related to declines in assets under management and performance below certain thresholds during a specified period. It is not guaranteed that counterparties will move to terminate individual transactions or entire agreements if a trigger event were to occur; however, it is their right to do so, and such a move could severely impact the Trading Companys portfolio. As at December 31, 2025

and 2024, the OTC contracts subject to such trigger events in a net liability position were the foreign currency forward contracts. The details of the net liability positions by counterparty are disclosed later in this note on the additional disclosures regarding the offsetting of derivative liabilities table. The ultimate amounts that may be required as payment to settle the derivative instruments in connection with the triggering of such credit contingency features as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, may differ from the net liability amounts recorded as at December 31, 2025 and 2024, and such differences can be material.
For exchange-traded futures contracts, the clearing organization functions as the central counterparty for each transaction and, therefore, bears the risk of settlement to and from counterparties, which mitigates the credit risk of these instruments.
As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, all credit default swaps held by the Trading Company are centrally cleared swaps.

* Amounts in the table above exclude foreign exchange spot contracts.
As described above, the Trading Company may enter into netting agreements with its derivative contract counterparties whereby the Trading Company may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. As at December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Trading Company was subject to netting agreements that allowed for amounts owed between the Trading Company and its counterparty to be netted. The party that has the larger payable pays the excess of the larger amount over the smaller amount to the other party. The netting agreements do not apply to amounts owed to or from different counterparties.
